Here is a fun event the whole family can enjoy. The STEM Fest is on October 19 in New Orleans. Tickets are available online if you are interested in attending.

School bus transportation plays a critical role in the education of our nation's students, and is the direct link between a neighborhood and the classroom. More than 25 million children ride the yellow bus every school day, and National School Bus Safety Week serves as a reminder for students, parents, teachers, and the community to keep school bus safety in the forefront.
We would like to thank our bus drivers for getting our students to school and back home safely every single day. We appreciate all you do!

We will collecting poster for this contest from October 17-23.

President John F. Kennedy created National School Lunch Week (NSLW) in 1962 to promote the importance of a healthy school lunch in a child's life and the impact it has inside and outside of the classroom.

A huge shout out to all our cafeteria workers who work so hard everyday to make sure our students have a healthy, warm meal. We appreciate all you do!

Thank a Firefighter! It's National Fire Prevention Week!

The fourth grade students of Ms. Brandi Bastian's class at DC Reeves Elementary took a walking field trip to their local fire department. The students learned about important ways to prevent fires, as well as how to stay safe if a fire should occur. Students took turns walking through a simulated house fire to practice crawling and exiting through an open window. The firemen showed off their fire fighitng gear, even letting the students take turns spraying water from the giant hose!

Remember to practice fire safety with your children at home and always have an escape plan!
