The 3rd grade class had a great time on their field trip to the Dorothy Pecaut Nature Center in Sioux City. We hiked, met some animals, played, made animal footprints, matched furs/hides to the animals they belonged to, used binoculars, and so much more!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came out on May 1st to support the EPJ Educators Rising Bingo fundraiser at the American Legion Post 134. With more than 100 community members in attendance, the evening was a wonderful show of support for our students. We were also incredibly surprised and grateful to receive a $1,000 donation during intermission from American Legion Post 134 and Veterans of Foreign Wars, who each generously contributed $500. Thank you to the American Legion Post 134 for helping make this fundraiser possible, and thank you to everyone who attended, played Bingo, and supported our students. Your generosity and encouragement mean so much as these young women prepare to represent our community at nationals this summer in Portland.

The Elementary Social Committee is excited to announce our “Tat a Teacher” fundraiser in celebration of Teacher Appreciation Week!
All money raised will go toward teacher appreciation, staff celebrations, and special events hosted throughout the year.
💥 How it works:
• Students can purchase tattoos before school all next week (May 4-7).
• When students buy a tattoo, they’ll choose a teacher and place it in that teacher’s bag.
• The more tattoos a teacher gets, the more they’ll wear!
🎨 Big Reveal:
Teachers will proudly wear their tattoos on Friday (May 8th) for everyone to see!
Let’s have some fun while showing our teachers how much we appreciate them! 💙

Educators Rising SOUTH DAKOTA is gearing up for our annual giving day challenge. On April 28, 29, 30, we will come together for our Days of Giving—a moment where we rally as a community to fund an entire year of programming for Educators Rising South Dakota. Educators Rising is a non-profit organization completely funded by donations. This year they have set a lofty goal. If we reach it… *We can continue offering all programming at no cost to students and schools *We can expand travel scholarships for national qualifiers *We can even begin to cover national and state dues for our members
Can you help us reach our goal of $1000? If we reach $1500, the state will donate back $500 to our EPJ chapter. Below is a link for you to click on if you are willing and able to help support EDUCATORS RISING SD as well as a QR code in the flyer. Thank you for your consideration. https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/team/epj-educators-rising

The Structured Learning Center (SLC) students were proud to deliver emergency communication cards to the Union County Sheriff’s Office this week, continuing our efforts to support clear, effective communication in our community.
These cards feature familiar graphics used throughout our school, helping ensure they are easily recognized and understood during emergency or high-stress situations.
We’re grateful for the opportunity to partner with local law enforcement to help create a safer, more inclusive environment for everyone.
