Were we at the Zoo or Nike Elementary today?
It was hard to tell with all the Animal Print seen throughout the classrooms and down the halls!
Tomorrow is our last day of Read Across America Week. Don't forget to wear a HAT for The Cat in the Hat!




Passage of Proposition M will positively impact every student in the MVR-III School District. This No Tax Increase bond issue will provide funds for a new 7th/8th grade building and provide a better learning space for students in grades 5 & 6. Upon completion of a new middle school, this project would immediately affect over 800 students in grades 5 - 8. However, all future students at grades 4 and below would ultimately benefit from the improved learning spaces provided by Prop M. #MVNation #MovingForwardTogether


Not only is it Read Across America Week, but it is also Women in Construction Week! Today, students in Kindergarten and First Grade had guest readers tell the story of, "The House That She Built." Students received toy hard hats and each of these classroom teachers received a copy of the book. We appreciate these women sharing the story and their experiences with us!






Nike Scouts got a little CRAZY with their SOCKS today!





Lots of RED & BLUE at Nike Elementary today for One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish!
