Today our elementary teachers and paras participated in DIBELS training to strengthen our understanding of assessing student outcomes in early literacy skills. 📚✏️

This professional development helps our staff better identify student needs, monitor progress, and provide targeted support to ensure every child continues to grow as a reader. We are excited to continue building strong literacy foundations for all students at Wausa Elementary! 💜💛

🎬🍿 What a FUN way to wrap up the school year! Today our elementary students spent their final day together enjoying field trips to see Super Mario Galaxy and The Pout-Pout Fish before heading to the YMCA for some extra adventures and fun with friends.

It has been an incredible year filled with learning, growth, laughter, and memories. We are so proud of our students and thankful for our amazing staff and families who made this year special.

Have an AMAZING summer, Vikings! ☀️💜💛
