Student Teacher

Mr. Martin will be joining our team for the next six weeks as he completes his student teaching experience at Elizabeth Ide. Please welcome him to the district!

I can not express my gratitude enough for everyone that helped make Jump Rope for Heart such a success. The students had a great time learning about healthy hearts while having a competition between classes. A special thank you to Mrs. Mazurowski for taking time out to come share her heart story with our students.
