Mrs. Mack’s ABC Countdown at Saint Anthony Elementary keeps the fun going! "B" is for Bubble Gum 🍬 Some bubbles popped perfectly, others turned into a bit of a sticky situation—but all part of the laughs and learning along the way. 🩷 A sweet (and slightly messy) way to make memories as the countdown to summer continues!

♻️ Greyhound Community—Quick Heads Up! ♻️ If you’ve been collecting aluminum cans, now is the time to cash them in!

Starting May 1, the price of aluminum will drop from $0.85/lb to $0.65/lb. If you have cans saved up, consider turning them in before the price change to get the most value. Can cage located in the CHS alley.

A special thank you to Ron Domeier for the time and care he has given over the past several years managing our can recycling efforts. Your work makes a difference!

Funds raised through can recycling directly support CHS Athletics, so every can truly counts. 🐾

"A" is for Arbor Day 🌳 Mrs. Mack’s 4th grade "ABC Countdown" at Saint Anthony Elementary is in full swing. 💡 Students learned about trees and even received their very own sapling, ready to plant! Such a fun way to count down the days to summer while mixing in hands-on learning and memorable experiences. 🌱

Even with all the commotion of the book fair going on in the library, we still celebrated EARTH DAY today! 🪷 Students went home with plants and flowers, and they found some special books to recommend to the nature lovers out there. A special thank you to A-Zinnia for donating tulips to give away today and to Marcia Davis for the plants. 🌍 Happy Earth Day!

“Ecological responsibility is not fulfilled by technical data alone," recalled the Pope. "Such data are necessary, but not sufficient. What is needed is an education that engages the mind, the heart, and the hands; new habits, communal lifestyles, and virtuous practices.” - Pope Leo XIV

We would like to think that traditions like these; where grandparents come back to witness generation after generation of "Grandparents Day", is what makes NUACS so special! Today, some, the fifth generation grandparents; they themselves graduates of CHS came to support their grandchildren and great grandchildren. It was a beautiful day. Thank you for being a part of so many smiles! 🐾
