Congratulations to Ms. Jennifer Arnold for receiving the USD 476 Red Apple Award at this morning's faculty meeting. Ms. Arnold is in her first year teaching 3rd grade at Copeland Elementary School and is doing an amazing job! In between teaching, her own school work, and raising her family.....she has found time to contribute her wonderful artistic touch to our school and community with beautiful painting jobs! Make sure to take a look at the Copeland Public Library windows for her artistry! We are glad Ms. Arnold is at USD 476 and has chosen to be a Rebel! 🍎

These silly-faced Montezuma Preschoolers, along with Mrs. Kelli Kinnamon, want to shout a giant THANK YOU to the Montezuma Lion's Club! Thanks to their gracious donation, Montezuma Schools is now equipped with a color vision screener. This addition to our vision screening process enables us to identify color vision deficiencies before students even know the names of their colors and relieve students and teachers of unnecessary frustrations and struggles. Early detection is so important and we are so very grateful for this tool we've been able to add to our toolkit! Thank you, Montezuma Lion's Club!

Coach Granados recently was on a podcast, where he talks about running. Our cross country season is well underway for the 2025 year. We have such a strong running program, where new students have joined the team. First meet took place in Meade on Thursday (9/4/25), where all the runners performed very well (official results are on KS MILE-SPLIT). He talks about a foundation of running, when it comes to performing, but wants us to also take note that there’s such a previous running history-foundation within our schools. That foundation is in place in large part to Mr and Mrs McMillan! She has coached cross country over 25 years and Mr. McMillan (coach Mac) coached ten years of cross country. She enters her 30th year in coaching Track and Field. Mr McMillan coached 27 years of Track and Field. Between the two, they have won eight state titles, numerous Regional and League titles. We endured a tremendous loss after Mr. Mcmillan’s passing. It is coaches privilege and honor to coach aside a great person like Robin McMillan. Her great wealth of running knowledge and his coaching combine now to continue adding to the running tradition of South Gray schools. Students, it is not too late to consider joining the CROSS COUNTRY Team. A team that works hard, finds a fun way to do the work. Consider joining them, as they go “ONCE MORE INTO THE FRAY” https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fnqT9ebqSJs
