USD 401 is excited to announce that we received the 2023 Children's Health Grant for $5,000. We were able to purchase two new filtered water fountains (with bottle-filling stations). One will be placed in the smaller gym in the secondary building and the other will be near the intermediate wing of the elementary building. These will be installed over the summer! We were also able to get water fountain filters for the next couple of years as well as water bottles for all of our students!
Thank you Mrs. Staten for your time spent on this project/grant.

I am so excited to share with all our elementary school students, a brand-new summer program here at the fairgrounds. Much like our spring field trips, this summer program will explore agriculture through stories, hands-on projects, and the creation of delicious treats to eat. There will be six Saturday sessions, each will have the same topic so students can come to the date that works best for them. Payment will not be due until they check in on the day of the session. Any questions can be directed to me at one of the methods below.
Thank you so much for your help in supporting the fair!

Mr. Ferris would like to thank these wonderful kids for the fantastic and entertaining Scholars Bowl season. They worked hard and did their best at every tournament we went to, and they placed more often than last years season. They showed great teamwork and welcomed our seventh grade late-comer with enthusiasm, and mentored her through two tournaments. We are proud of each of them!!


Congratulations to these Chase High School students on their CPL Academic Honors!
