🏐❤️ BATTLER OF THE WEEK: TAYLOR LONG! ❤️🏐 This week’s Battler of the Week is Taylor Long! 👏 Taylor stepped into the libero position partway through the season and embraced the challenge! Her confidence and defensive skills have continued to grow, and her thoughtful questions show her dedication to learning and improving. She’s also one of our strongest spot servers and isn’t afraid to stay aggressive, bounce back from mistakes, and keep competing!

The 3rd Grade class made another trip to the manor today to make poppies with their residents in honor of Veterans Day next Wednesday. They turned out beautifully and several requested help hanging them in their windows! We also learned one resident has a special birthday Nov. 11th and will be turning 101 that day! 🎉 On the way back to school we got to enjoy the last pieces of fall as the trees shed the ice from the morning frost. Grateful to be able to make the quick walk to the manor each month!

Friendly reminder: All FCCLA fruit sales are due Monday, Nov. 9th at 8am to Mrs Langer. Thank you and have a great weekend!

Custodian Josh Cordell poured a concrete pad and invited the class to place their handprints around the bench 💜 Thank you to Schlachter Lumber for donating all of the materials to make this happen!

🏐 Battler of the Week: Skyler Oster! 🏐 A great attitude, consistent effort, and a team first mindset. Skyler brings all three to practices and matches, along with a smile! ❤️ When her team needed her to move from libero to outside hitter, Skyler embraced the change and got to work. Her adaptability and willingness to step into a new role show what it means to be a dependable teammate. Skyler, thank you for showing up, working hard, and putting your team first. We’re proud to call you a Battler! 👏 #BattlerOfTheWeek #BattlerPride
