Did you know? 🤔

John Middleton Elementary was built 71 years ago. Since that time, the school has deteriorated and students’ learning needs have changed significantly.

Come learn more about the challenges at John Middleton Elementary and our other schools at our next Community Engagement Session on May 20. Find out more and RSVP at sd735.org/building735.

TODAY'S THE DAY!

It's a beautiful day for a garden plant sale and TODAY'S THE DAY! Stop by the McCracken Middle School Garden to see what's in bloom. In the event of rain, the sale will be under the awning in the circle drive.
