More Ag Day fun!
The 6th grade classes recently went on their field trip to Fun City! Before Fun City, they enjoyed a picnic lunch at the park, and even played a little kickball! At Fun City, they enjoyed bowling, go-karts, and arcade games. We want to thank WACO Elementary PTO for making this AWESOME day possible for our 6th grade students!
2024 Elementary Field Day
May Menu's
Today our 6th grade students got to do THREE really fun things at their future school! First they enjoyed a financial literacy presentation with the JH students. Then students were able to meet their future teachers, tour the building, and get a glimpse of 7th grade. We ended the day with elementary relays. What an awesome day! 🩵🤍🩵

WACO Elementary Families,
From April 1-30, 2024, parents and families of students in preschool through grade 12 have the opportunity to participate in the Parent Conditions for Learning Survey. The Survey focuses on areas that range from student safety, to positive adult and student relationships, to school rules and how they are enforced. Participation in the Survey is encouraged, but it is completely voluntary, and all questions are optional to answer.
We highly value your input! See the images below for directions on how to take the survey. Thank you in advance for your participation!
Today was a lot of fun!
More pictures of the solar eclipse viewing today!
We had an exciting day as students learned about and had the opportunity to view the solar eclipse! Students wore special glasses provided by the school. Students and staff were outside on the lawns taking in the experience! Enjoy some pictures that staff captured.
A quick reminder that WACO will have school next Friday, April 12th, as part of the final snow make up day. Thank you.
Save the Date: 2024 WACO Foundation Golf Outing.
