Hello Glenwood!
One last chance to shop at the Scholastic book fair and stock up on summer reading!
Join us Friday, April 28th at Northeast Elementary's library from 3:00 to 6:00 pm for our BOGO book fair!
Congratulations to Chelsea Vang and Addison Mitchell for winning Iowa Art All-State. All Juniors and Seniors are eligible to enter, but only about seven percent are judged to become All-State. You have to enter a portfolio of ten pieces of original work and write on three different subjects that relate to your work.
A special Congratulations to Addison Mitchell, she is the first person from Glenwood to win her Junior and Senior year, back-to-back champion! When entering, if you win your junior year you can not use any of your previous work if you enter your senior year, so you have to come up with a new portfolio of work.
Mrs. Yates and Mrs. Diekmann's ELA classes took the day to "Glow What You Know!" During their ELA blocks students reviewed skills/played games to prepare and relax before ISASP testing next week.

In a week full of ISASP testing, Mr. Miller’s 8th grade class got to spend a little time outside enjoying the nice weather this week. While outside, they read part of their latest novel study book together. This is the third novel study this group of students has done this year. They are currently reading the second graphic novel in a two-part series for “The Graveyard Book”. It was a great afternoon combining reading and the great outdoors!
On Tuesday night, Northeast Early Childhood Center participated in the Festival of Young Children at the YMCA. It was wonderful to see so many community resources that support young children in our community.
