It was a special day for Mrs. Ferguson's class, as they got to visit the CCARE building. But they didn't just treat it as a field trip to play with dogs. Before they went, each student:
1. Researched each dog on CCARE's website
2. Chose one dog
3. Created a Canva poster on why that dog should be adopted
Then they got to see the dogs in person! Stop by sometime to look at their posters. Some pretty perfect puppers would love to find a forever home!

We want to give a big shout out to all of the Garfield students that applied for and held a school wide job this last semester! They worked hard to make our school the best it could be. We appreciate their hard work and know they will continue to do great things next year!

The USD 379 Bus Barn initiated a bus behavior campaign this year. Each driver nominates a regular rider who exemplifies good behavior and shows respect for both the driver and the other passengers. All nominees were put in a hat, and one name was drawn as April's winner. That student is Madoline from Garfield! Her driver is Dolan Rosenow. Madoline received gift certificates donated by Ray's Apple Market and Tasty Pastry. #celebrate379
