Thankful for a Generous Community 🍂🦃 As we embrace the spirit of Thanksgiving, I want to extend heartfelt gratitude to the Gays Mills Lions Club for their incredible generosity in paying off school meal debt. With so many families struggling during this season, your kindness has lifted a significant burden and made a true difference in our community. A special thanks to our new friend Amber Parish for her dedication in working with the Lions Club and our community to make this remarkable act of kindness a reality. I also want to take this opportunity to thank our parents, community members, board of education, and our Ag students for their support and contributions. Our Ag students deserve a special shoutout for growing lettuce for our garden bar—your hard work helps us provide fresh, nutritious meals for our kids every day. Together, we are nourishing not only our children but also the bonds that make our community thrive. Thank you all for making this journey so rewarding. Warm wishes this Thanksgiving, Jen Kapinus Director of Food Services

These sessions were eye-opening and inspiring, giving our students a glimpse into the many pathways available to them after high school.

Our students recently experienced the wonders of static electricity through engaging, hands-on experiments! Using just balloons and everyday materials, they learned how electric charges work and had fun making their hair stand on end and moving small objects with the power of static! This activity was a fantastic way to bring science to life and inspire curiosity. At North Crawford, we’re all about sparking interest through hands-on learning, and this was a great example of that!
