Lunch On The Lawn - We invite you to join us for Lunch on the Lawn on Wednesday, May 30th! We will plan to begin at approximately 11:30 AM. We will have our students come to the Cafeteria to meet their families. We will start with our Kindergarten students and have each grade go through the line to meet their families or to grab a school lunch if needed. We are hopeful we will have great weather. In the event we cannot be outside, we will enjoy lunch together in our classrooms. If you are able to join us, please sign in near our office. If you are bringing lunch for your students, please note that vendors near Lincoln have been very busy in advance of this event in the past few years! Please plan ahead! We are not able to order additional school lunches.


Yearbooks! Yearbooks have been delivered to the office and will be distributed to students in the next few days. We do have a few extra yearbooks available for purchase this year. These will be sold on a "first come - first serve” basis. Softcover yearbooks are available for $15.00, hardcover yearbooks are available for $20.00. Please call the school (553.2950) or email Mrs. Kuehner (amy.kuehner@cfschools.org) to reserve yours!


Please consider helping us take care of the gardens this summer! Please sign up here!


End of the Year Lunch Balance - In order to balance our accounts in the lunch program at the close of the school year, we need to have your child's lunch account balance at 0 or above.  Please bring it up-to date as soon as possible. Any remaining balance will remain in your child's account and carry over for next year. If your children will not be attending Cedar Falls school next year, please let us know as soon as possible and they will be given a refund of the balance left in their account at the end of the year.

If you have any questions, please call the school at 553-2989.


Please make sure to visit our Lost and Found before the end of the school year! We will plan to donate remaining items after school is dismissed for the summer.


A message from our Nurse - please plan to begin picking up as needed medications as we near the end of the school year. Examples of this includes ibuprofen or tylenol not used on a regular basis.
