🧸✨ Cozy Flannel Day in First Grade! ✨🧸
Ms. Shawna’s first graders were all smiles on Friday—some students came ready to feel extra cozy in their favorite flannel! The room was full of soft textures, bright patterns, and lots of happy faces.
To make the day even more special, they invited Officer Brent to jump in for a photo and included him as part of their First Grade Family. Moments like these remind us how strong and connected our school community truly is. ❤️
What a wonderful, warm-hearted day! 🧵📚

Today we’re rolling the clock all the way back to the 1990–91 Van Buren County Girls and Boys Basketball Teams!
Big hair, bold uniforms, buzzer beaters, and that classic gym-floor shine — this crew brought the energy every single game. Whether it was fast breaks, full-court presses, or the loudest student section cheering them on, these athletes helped build the strong basketball tradition we’re proud of today.
Here’s to the players, coaches, and fans who made the 90–91 season unforgettable. 💛🦅
If you were part of these teams — or cheering from the stands — let us know your favorite memory below!
