Happy Earth Day! The 3rd graders and the PK students enjoyed a nature scavenger hunt today. The big kids also helped their small friends plant seeds. The preschool students can't wait to watch their flowers grow!

Today we proudly celebrate Administrative Professionals Day and the incredible individuals who keep our district running strong each and every day!
A heartfelt thank you to Robin Pinkly, Elementary Secretary; Janet Privett, High School Secretary; Anne Menego, Bookkeeper/Board Secretary; and Ginger Velasco, Superintendent Secretary. These dedicated professionals are truly the behind-the-scenes heroes of our schools.
From welcoming families and supporting students, to managing countless details that keep everything on track, their work often goes unseen—but its impact is felt everywhere. Their organization, kindness, and commitment create an environment where students and staff can thrive.
Because of their hard work, dedication, and unwavering support, our schools are not only efficient, but also warm, welcoming, and wonderful places to learn and grow.
Please join us in celebrating and thanking these amazing individuals today—we are so grateful for all they do!
💜💛

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to outgoing Verona School Board Member Beth Hilton for her six years of dedicated service to our district. Beth has worked tirelessly to keep students at the center of every decision, while also serving as a strong and consistent supporter of our teachers. Her leadership, commitment, and positive spirit have made a lasting impact on our schools, and we are truly thankful for all she has given to Verona.
We would also like to congratulate Louis Carrasquillo, School Board President, and Abe Sherwood on their reelection to another three-year term. Your continued leadership provides stability and vision as we move forward together.
Please join us in welcoming Tina Jennings to the Verona School Board, where she will serve as Board Treasurer. We are excited to have her perspective and look forward to the contributions she will bring to our district.
Thank you to all of our board members—past, present, and future—for your commitment to serving our students, staff, and community. 💜💛

The ABC countdown continued in 3rd grade last week. We dressed like a future career, enjoyed a fun dance party, and had a workout on exercise day. We also practiced fractions by making human number lines, and we had a blast watching our chicks hatch!

☀️🌧️ Weather Watchers in Action! 🌪️❄️
This week in kindergarten, we dove into our weather unit—and had so much hands-on fun!
🌦️ We became meteorologists for the day, heading outside to observe the sky and write our very own weather reports.
☁️ Then we got creative with a weather snack craft that packed in a whole lot of learning:
✅ 2D vs. 3D shapes (Is that cloud flat like a circle or puffy like a sphere?)
✅ Skip counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s with our snack pieces
✅ Following 2-step directions
So proud of these little learners for thinking like scientists, mathematicians, and artists all in one week! 🌈
