We are still feeling gratitude for all that helped to pull of our Multicultural Picnic earlier this month.
Thank you to Lieutenant Loso from Kalamazoo Public Safety, Wenke Greenhouses, John Gernaat & Son Greenhouse, Caricatures by Gene, Skylar Belser, Dj Conscious, Katrina White, and the CIS volunteers.

The key to having a successful PTO year is forming a core of leaders. There are many strategic roles you might fit into. Join us at Tuesday’s meeting to discuss!

CONGRATS to Arcadia Super Reading Teacher, Robyn Burke. The Kalamazoo Promise "You Make A Difference Award" recognizes one staff member from each school that is “making a difference” in the lives of young people. Mrs. Burke works to boost literacy in our 1st graders and helps out Arcadia in countless other ways, including organizing Teacher Appreciation efforts! Thank you!!!

Don’t forget to visit Menchie's Frozen Yogurt today or Saturday to support out Art Department.

Show this flyer at Menchie's on Friday and Saturday to earn funds for Mr. Pfeuffer's art department. 1st graders with art in the display also receive a free 5oz FroYo!

Come say CONGRADULATIONS to our retirees: Mrs. Foster (Music), Mrs. Bergman (Resource Room), and Mrs. T (ESCE)! A reception will be hosted for these amazing educators next Wednesday, 5/20/26, in the Library from 4:30-6:00.
