Photo Friday: Last Week of School Edition!

What a way to finish the year! From fun-filled activities and celebrations to those final moments with classmates and teachers, the last week of school was one to remember.

Take a scroll through some of our favorite snapshots as we officially close the chapter on another fantastic school year. Have a wonderful summer!

School is officially OUT, and summer is officially ON! ☀️🌊

Whether you're catching waves like the Euclid Eagle, relaxing in a hammock like the Indian Grove Owl, owning the volleyball court like the River Trails Middle School Raven, or enjoying a cool summer treat like our Prairie Trails Chipmunk, we hope your break is off to an amazing start.

So grab your sunscreen, soak up the sunshine, make some memories, and enjoy every moment of a well-deserved summer vacation. Let the summer adventures begin!

Photo Friday is here!

As we head into the final stretch of the school year, our elementary students made the most of every moment during Field Days and the 5th Grade Picnic! From games and laughter to celebrating friendships and milestones, the second-to-last week of school was one to remember.

One week left, but who's counting? Check out the highlights!

The end-of-year rush is officially here! It’s been a whirlwind of a week across the district, packed with learning, laughter, and special events.

To capture it all, we’ve put together an extra-large photo gallery this week! With just 2 weeks left until summer break, we are so proud of how hard our RTSD26 students are working to finish the year strong. 💪🎓

Take a look through the memories we made this week!

Last night marked the final concert in the career of a true River Trails Middle School legend. After 31 incredible years, Chorus Director (and oh, so much more!) Steve Flowers will be retiring at the end of the school year. Beyond chorus, Mr. Flowers has been the driving force behind our Steel Drum and Bucket Band, as well as the annual school musical.

We couldn't let him take his final bow without an unforgettable send-off. The evening featured brilliant musical numbers, hilarious skits, and special performances from a wonderful group of alumni who returned to honor him.

It’s hard to put into words just how much Mr. Flowers has meant to our community over the last three decades, but his legacy will be felt for years to come. We will miss you terribly. Congratulations, and thank you for everything, Mr. Flowers!

Nothing brings people together quite like music!

The Euclid Elementary School 4th and 5th-grade chorus stopped by Prairie Trails School today to perform for our Chipmunks ahead of tonight’s Kindergarten concert.

One of the sweetest moments of the day was watching former Prairie Trails students reconnect with their beloved teachers. We can’t wait to see our Kindergarteners shine on stage tonight!
