Creating Kindness Assembly Pat Ludeke, a special education teacher from Fremont Public Schools (Washington Elementary), was here on Tuesday to present a special gift to our school and fire department. This is all about remembering the sacrifices of heroes and the resiliency of communities that have faced a natural disaster. A special gift was given to Pat’s school to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the devastating March 2019 floods. This year Pat’s school is paying it forward and in a random act of kindness presenting a gift to our school on the one-year anniversary of the wildfires that affected so many in our community. Thank you to Pat and Fremont Public Schools for Paying It Forward and Creating Kindness!!!

14 competitors from grades 3-6 competed today in the Invention Convention at the Prairie Museum in Holdrege. The students had to have an original invention idea that would improve the quality of life for people now or in the future. They then had to develop their invention, create a display board, and prepare to present and answer questions about their invention. The Arapahoe participants did a fantastic job representing our school! They had some great, unique ideas, worked very hard to get ready for the day, and presented themselves well. Competing today were: Walker, Emma & Molly, Gage & Jamisen, Cody, Dax & Nolan, Elsie & Lilly, Kinley & Amelia, Caiden, and Michaela. The team of Gage & Jamisen earned 3rd place in their circle with their invention of The Food Allergy App! Michaela earned 2nd place in her circle with her invention of The Trouble-Free Fidget Box! Congratulations and way to go!
