ICYMI: Degan Elementary is the BEST school around! At Degan Elementary we encourage students and staff alike to be bold, bright, and educated to the fullest. From community involvement, eagle, shuffle, extending learning outside of the classroom, and encouraging everyone to be themselves - Degan is a place of wonder, growth, and love. We are growing brains and making memories!

At Degan Elementary, our teachers lead with heart. ❤️
We aren’t just educators teaching reading, writing, and math each day—we are relationship builders, encouragers, mentors, and safe places for our students. Every child who walks through our doors brings their own story, experiences, challenges, and dreams. That’s why we believe learning starts with connection.
From the first day of school to the very last, our teachers work intentionally to build meaningful relationships that leave a lasting impact. We create classrooms where students feel seen, valued, supported, and loved. When children know they belong, they thrive—not only academically, but socially and emotionally as well.
We are proud to foster a learning environment where students are excited to come to school, take risks, grow, and discover their potential. The heart of Degan Elementary will always be the incredible teachers who show up every day ready to make a difference. ❤️
We celebrated one of our favorite traditions—the 5th Grade Eagles’ Last Walk. 🦅💙
As they walked the halls one final time, surrounded by cheers, smiles, and a few happy tears, we were reminded just how much they have grown. It feels like yesterday they were walking through our doors as little learners, and now they are spreading their wings and preparing for middle school.
To our amazing 5th graders: we are so proud of all you have accomplished. Keep being kind, brave, and confident as you begin this exciting new chapter in 6th grade.
We wish each of you a wonderful summer filled with fun, adventure, and memories to last a lifetime. Once an Eagle, always an Eagle. 💚🦅

School’s out for summer ☀️🛟 We wrapped up our Underground Spirit Week with floaties, laughs, and the best memories to end an amazing school year.
Thank you to our students, families, and staff for making this year so special. We will miss seeing all of your smiling faces each day, but we hope everyone has a safe, relaxing, and FUN summer break! We can’t wait to welcome everyone back in August 💙
And don’t worry… just because school is out doesn’t mean the fun is over 👀 Be on the lookout for exciting new things coming to our social media all summer long!
The ceremonies were classy… but afterward, we had to let the dawgs out 🐾👟😂
After a long day of celebrating students, the teachers traded dress shoes for recovery mode!
