🦫💦 SURPRISE! It was Attendance Day at Big Lake Elementary!
Big Lake held its first Surprise Attendance Day yesterday, starting the morning with music, bubbles, signs and lots of cheers as staff welcomed students to school.
The fun continued in the afternoon when students turned their water shooters on Principal Matt Lutes! 💦 And teacher Natalie Sakuma made sure Mr. Lutes didn't escape without getting completely soaked, dumping a container of water over his head!
Big Lake plans to hold a Surprise Attendance Day each month, with different activities throughout the year designed to make coming to school fun and help students feel welcomed, connected and excited to learn.
Because every day at school is an opportunity to learn, connect and grow — and showing up matters.
Way to go, Beavers! 🦫

100 Years of Central School 🎉
Take a look back at Central School’s 1958–59 kindergarten class with teacher Mrs. Matsushita!

Join us for the Central Centennial Celebration from noon to 2 p.m. October 3. The celebration will include a community open house and self-guided tours, giving former students, families and community members a chance to walk the halls and revisit Central.
