It was a picture-perfect morning last Friday for the annual Douglas Dash at Douglas Elementary School. Throughout the morning, the seven different grades levels were each assigned a 25-minute time slot for their run. As each grade was running, another grade was outside to cheer them on!

On Monday, May 6, Riverside Middle School had the privilege of inducting 30 outstanding students into the National Junior Honor Society. These students were recognized for demonstrating excellence in the areas of scholarship, leadership, service, character and citizenship. The students are resourceful and dependable problem-solvers who uphold principles of morality and ethics. They are excited to promote school activities and exemplify positive attitudes about life. We look forward to seeing the positive impact they will continue to make in our school and community. Congratulations to the new inductees! #WatertownWay

As they join the prestigious ranks of the National Honor Society, we look forward to seeing the remarkable impact they will continue to make within our school and beyond. Congratulations to our newest inductees—they truly embody what it means to lead and excel. #WatertownWay

35 years ago, on February 2, gas was $0.96 per gallon, a pound of bacon was $1.90, "Need You Tonight" by INXS was the #1 song and "Three Men and a Baby" was in the movie theaters. Most importantly though, Donna Parys began working at Lebanon (now LEAP) Elementary School. For 35 years she has gone above and beyond her role as a paraprofessional, supporting students and staff in various ways. On February 2, we celebrated Donna's dedication and commitment to education in the community - 1980s style! So many #WatertownWay students and staff members have had the pleasure of working with Mrs. Parys, and we hope there will be many more!





Mrs. Peters’ 4K Webster Wildcats celebrated reading “Hi, Pizza Man!” this week with a pizza party!
