It was a fun day dressing up as our parents at the Blue Rapids Elementary. There were mechanics, police, city employees, Casey's and Sinclair represented. The teachers also enjoyed being military and K-State employees. Mrs. Meadows especially looked good in purple! There were so many good ones but could only get a few pictures. Enjoy!







Ethan received a VHS ticket from Mrs. Hardin for "valuing others" by sitting with a student that was alone.

It's Homecoming Week....
Parents of 3rd through 6th grades: Friday is our Homecoming Parade in Waterville starting at 2:15 pm. Elementary students will walk in the parade and attend a short pep rally after the parade. If your child is riding on a float, that float coordinator is responsible for your child during that time. If you would like to take your student home after the parade, they need to be signed out with their classroom teacher. Teachers will have the sign out sheets. If you have more than one student in the building, each need to be signed out with their respective teacher. If your student has not been signed out, they will return to the Blue Rapids Grade School for regular dismissal and bussing. This includes your Blue Rapids Grade School students that live in Waterville and in the country. Thanks and GO MUSTANGS!

First home games of the season for our Lady Mustangs!
