🏐 Volleyball Senior Night! ❤️🤍
Tonight we celebrated our lone senior, Brylee Erickson, and the leadership she has brought to the team! ❤️ She has helped lead the Warriors both on and off the court, and we’re proud to recognize all she’s contributed to the program.
The varsity team capped off the evening with a sweep of Postville, winning all three games! Way to finish strong, Warriors! 🏐🔥
Football, Cross Country and Band Senior is tomorrow at our last home football game of the season.
Our 6th graders are diving into AI Media Literacy lessons in Computer Science! This week, students are exploring how companies use AI and marketing tactics to grab shoppers’ attention and encourage purchases during Black Friday.
From personalized ads to deals that create a sense of urgency, students are learning to recognize these strategies and think critically about the media they see. These skills help our Warriors become smarter, more informed digital consumers! 🧠💡

🎃🍁 A Perfect Day at the Pumpkin Patch! 🍂🧡
Yesterday our preschoolers had so much fun on their pumpkin patch field trip! They went on a wagon ride to pick out the perfect pumpkins, visited some friendly goats and a donkey, enjoyed yummy pumpkin cookies, and spent lots of time playing and exploring!
There’s nothing better than a day filled with fresh air, happy faces, and lots of fall fun! So many sweet memories were made! 🎃🤎
HISTORY MADE AT STATE SOILS!
Central Community FFA showed up, competed against the best, and proved that hard work and determination can make history!
At the Iowa FFA Soils Evaluation, our team competed against the top five FFA chapters from each of Iowa’s six FFA districts and finished 9th place overall with a GOLD rating! 🥇
This accomplishment is especially meaningful. To the best of our knowledge, it has been at least since before 2009 that an FFA chapter from the Northeast District has finished in the Top 10 with a Gold rating at the state competition. For years, Northeast District teams have worked toward this goal, and this team rose to the challenge!
These students represented Central Community FFA, our school, and our district with determination, skill, and hard work. They didn't just compete — they broke through a long-standing barrier and made their mark in Iowa FFA history!
We are incredibly proud of this team and what they accomplished. Congratulations on an outstanding finish and a milestone worth celebrating!
