Coming home tonight with every EVES student is an at home reading log, as well as an informational poster for families. An initiative in our building this year is to increase students literacy, and we are looking for family's support in doing this! Each month a different reading log will be sent home with all students, as well as a monthly at home reading challenge. October's challenge is to capture a picture of your child reading in their Halloween costume. You can send your photos to your child's classroom teacher to be posted on our building TV's. You can also comment and attach your photos to this post as well for the community to see! Let's make reading fun and an important part of each day :)


If your student plans on attending University of Iowa, Iowa State University, or University of Northern Iowa, review their RAI score to make sure they qualify for application.

Congratulations to our 2027 Homecoming Court!
Save the date! Students in grades K-6 should have brought home a permission slip to attend the QC Storm Education Day hockey game on October 22. Please return them to your child's teacher by October 9.

3rd Grade has been reading the story The Wind in the Willows and learning about the themes of friendship, hospitality, responsibility, loyalty, and irresponsibility. Students completed an opinion writing piece describing how a character showed a specific theme throughout the story!


Friday's game at home vs. Central City has been moved up to 6:00 p.m. start time due to possible weather.

Mrs. Ralston's 2nd grade collaborated together to create an anchor chart for what independent reading sounds and looks like. Then, they had the opportunity to practice around the room!





Our 5th grade students are building their reading fluency through Readers Theater! By practicing and performing scripts, students are working on accuracy, expression, pacing, and confidence while bringing the characters and stories to life.


Muster on Maquoketa was a big hit for our 8th graders! This Civil War reenactment event is top notch!





First grade was able to explore some of their math tools: geo boards, base ten blocks, and pattern blocks. They were a big hit! 🤩



Mark your calendars! EVES grade level family engagement dates are attached. We look forward to inviting everyone into the building to connect with your students learning!
