🎓💙 Senior Walk – May 4th at 1:30 PM 💙🎓

There’s something truly special about coming back to where it all began…

On May 4th at 1:30 PM, we are honored to welcome back our former Dwight students as they take their Senior Walk through the halls of their elementary school one last time. What was once a place of first days, learning to read, and making new friends now becomes a place of reflection, pride, and celebration.

As they walk these familiar halls, we’ll be reminded of just how far they’ve come—and how proud we are of the young adults they’ve become. 💫

We will have refreshments available for our graduates and yearbooks to stroll back through time, bringing back memories from their elementary days. 📚✨

Parents, family, friends, and former Dwight teachers are all encouraged to come out and support and celebrate these amazing students as they take this meaningful walk. ( Please bring your ID so we can badge you in)

To our seniors: Dwight will always be a part of your story. We can’t wait to cheer you on as you take this next big step! ❤️

Our students were celebrated in a big way to help boost their confidence and remind them just how capable they are. From the moment they walked in, they were greeted with a hallway full of encouraging signs showing how much they are loved and supported.

We are so proud of our students and know they are going to do amazing things! 🌟

🍕👩‍🍳 Discovery Kitchen Fun! 👨‍🍳🍕

Our 2nd grade students had an amazing opportunity to participate in Discovery Kitchen yesterday, where they got hands-on in the kitchen making their very own pizza with a cauliflower crust!

A big thank you to Chef Lundy with Chartwells for leading this fun and engaging experience. Students not only enjoyed creating their pizzas, but also learned about making healthier food choices in a fun and interactive way.

We love opportunities like this that bring learning to life—especially when food is involved! 😄🍽️

💼✨ Happy Administrative Professionals Day – April 22nd! ✨💼

Today we are celebrating two very important members of our Dwight Elementary family who help keep everything running behind the scenes! ❤️🖤

💙 Mrs. Sam, our dedicated office secretary, keeps us stocked and organized by ordering supplies and making sure our office runs smoothly. She’s also the friendly voice answering the phone, directing calls where they need to go, and contacting parents for school-related events! She assists Mrs. Malin and all of our teachers to make sure they have what they need, when they need it. We couldn’t run efficiently without her!

💙 Ms. Renea, our Registrar and “all things needed” person, is the go-to for our families and staff. She works closely with parents, helps the staff in any way possible, handles car duty calling, organizes the Cyclone Store, and steps in wherever she’s needed!

We are so thankful for the hard work, teamwork, and care these two bring to Dwight Elementary each and every day. Our school truly couldn’t function without them!

Join us in showing appreciation for Mrs. Sam and Ms. Renea today! 💐
