What a beautiful day at Peabody-Burns Elementary School! Our Student Leadership Team took part in running their first assembly of the year behind the leadership and assembly announcers, Knox and Hannah. Our leadership students have daily jobs they assist with along with the their every day learning. These kiddos are making a huge impact!
At our assembly today, many students received awards and rewards for their reading growth, principal's and superintendent's honor roll, and student of the month. One of our most heartfelt rewards classes can earn is the collection of pop tabs for the Ronald McDonald House. This challenge goes out to each grade level every month to earn the most pop tabs, which is near and dear to our amazing secretary, Mrs. Juanita Richstatter. The class that earned the most tabs for the second month in a row goes to Mrs. Freeman's first graders with 7.2 pounds! They have earned the famous popcorn party from Mrs. Ann Jones.
Nominations for Student of the Month this month were out-of-this-world! We have so many students doing amazing things every day to assist in the great culture we have at PBES. Our nominations this month included Ana, Blaze, David, Lillian, Brynlee, Delilah, Eivin, Emmett, Ella, Bexley, Graham, Judah, Aliyah, Jayden, Evie, and Eliza. All students nominated are doing tremendous things around the building! So, let's give a BIG Warrior congratulations to our October, Student of the Month...Evie!!!!! Evie is very attentive and engaged in all of her work. She is persistent and eager to gain knowledge and experience. Evie is a great student. Good job, Evie!
Congratulations to Evie and the rest of our October nominees, as well as our award winners!

USD 398 would like to recognize and thank the Patterson Family Foundation for awarding the school district 3 grants. The grants were $7,200 for CTE equipment and training, $80,000 to redo the playground and kitchen in the daycare as part of the Rural School District Child Care Grant, and $150,000 for the Rural Educators Grant to help support teachers as they further their education.
Through these grants we will be able to help the youngest to the oldest in our district. The ability to help several different groups who are part of USD 398 will be felt for a long time. We are excited to see the results from the different groups and will post updates as they occur. The pictures are of the welder that was purchased for the CTE students.
The Patterson Family Foundation is a family-led foundation extending the legacy of Neal and Jeanne Patterson. They strive to help lift up rural communities through health care, education, economic opportunity and beyond. Please visit their website at pattersonfamilyfoundation.org for more information about this very generous family.
