Congratulations to our 11/1/24 Reede Gray Elementary Cardinal Shout Outs this week. As we get ready to close our month in talking about Responsibility it is something that we can all keep striving for. Eleanor Roosevelt, former 26th First Lady said, “In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves…and the choices that we make are ultimately our own responsponsibility.” It is up to each of us to take action and understand the impact of each of our choices. We are so proud of our students this week!! It's always a GREAT day to be a Cardinal!!! * Be Respectful * Be Responsible * Be Safe #ReedeGrayElementary #CharacterStrong #AlwaysTheCardinalWay #Be Responsible #wacinyapicawaun


This morning we sent off the Boys and Girls Cross Country Teams as they Compete tomorrow at the State Meet.

Our Girls Team: Addie Thomes, Ellie Nelson, Lola Luze, Reese Prescott, Mary Slavin, Madi Munsell, Heather Panitzke, Vanessa Johnson and Aleena Vetsouvaunh
Our Boys Team: Will Ahrens, Kilen Cilek, Landyn Nordby, Tyler Robinson, Clayton Salmon, Elway Berg, Mason Anderson, Aiden Salmon, and Ben Jorgenson
