We celebrated our CUBS who earned it with a fun PBIS CUB CLUBS event!
Students rotated through three exciting clubs (dance competition, directed drawing, and Minute to Win It) and had a blast along the way! Smiles were everywhere! A special shout-out to our 5th grade helpers who did an amazing job supporting and leading our K–2 Cubs! We’re so proud of our amazing students who show great character every day!
























Students enjoyed music, lunch with friends, and a variety of fun activities, including hula-hooping, hopscotch, board games, and even a little gymnastics! Smiles, laughter, and lots of fun made it a great way to celebrate our readers!










Such a fun, hands-on way to wrap up their learning and bring science to life!




This week, students practiced spelling patterns that make the /j/ sound and had the opportunity to demonstrate their learning for the class by marking words at the board. What a great way to build confidence and show what they know!





Rodgers Elementary’s New Year Blast Off into Reading Night was an absolute success-with over 70 students in attendance!
Parents and students participated together in fun, hands-on reading activities while learning new and exciting ways to support reading success at home. Families signed a reading promise, committing to making reading a priority. Each student also received a Fun Lunch ticket and a cool space-themed bag filled with goodies and helpful information for families.
What a fantastic night of learning, family engagement, and reading fun!
