Rise Above Rocket is a nomination program where if a teacher or staff member sees a student doing a “rise above” action or goes above and beyond inside or outside of the classroom, they can be nominated to receive an award and recognition. Sadie Canada, Chloe Johnson, Grayson Scalf, Raedon Hollingsworth (not pictured), and Skylah Brinley were August and September’s chosen students.
Sadie Canada was nominated by Amy Schluterman. Amy said, “Sadie always listens and follows directions. She completes work on time and is respectful of others when she's finished.” Sadie enjoys gymnastics and enjoys it because she gets to try new things. She enjoys Scranton because everyone is nice and she can trust them.
Chloe Johnson was nominated by Cameron Kremer. Cameron said, “Chloe has been saving her money to purchase water bottles for students who did not bring theirs to school. She is always on task in class, offering to help others, and offers each day to help with the trash cans in the room so that the custodian’s job is a little easier. She’s an all around amazing kiddo.” Chloe enjoys reading and drawing. She enjoys going to Scranton to see her best friends and seeing all of the teachers.
Grayson Scalf was nominated by Rebecca Turner. Rebecca said, “Grayson is always looking for ways to be a good friend to classmates, helping without them asking, encouraging them, and being polite. He is also always attentive and engaged in learning. Grayson gives his best all day, everyday!” Grayson enjoys having friends over and playing football. Grayson’s favorite thing about Scranton is having recess and going to lunch.
Raedon Hollingsworth was nominated by Sarah Schluterman. Sarah said, “Raeden is a constant every single day inside or outside our class. She constantly gets brags from other teachers and is a friend to literally any student who is down and needs a smile. She always tries her hardest and is always doing what's right; which to me means a lot to me. I feel like we have so many great students, and I feel that it's her time to shine! Raedon enjoys going to the water park and hanging out with her family. She likes going to Scranton Elementary because everyone is nice and her friends go there.
Skylah Brinley was nominated by Greta Strobel. Greta said, “Skylah continues to help Braizon on the bus daily. She keeps him safe and helps him exit the bus every afternoon.” Skylah enjoys hanging out with family and enjoys Scranton because she gets to meet new people, see awesome teachers, and learn new things.
Congratulations, Rise Above Rockets!

Parents at this time we are experiencing a rise in positive covid 19 cases and subsequent quarantines. While we currently do not have a mask mandate it is strongly encouraged. Please do not send your student to school if they are experiencing any sign of sickness. Again, please encourage your child to wear a mask especially on school buses and maintain social distancing when possible.
Congratulations to Peyton Jones on his first place finish and Brandt Rogers on finishing thirteenth today in the Cross Country meet today in Mansfield! Proud of you guys!!

COVID vaccination clinic will be back on campus this Friday, Sept 24, 10am-11am, in the safe room. Anyone that received their first shot at the last clinic on campus is due for their second shot. Students MUST have another signed permission slip to receive the second shot. Anyone interested in getting their first shot is welcome. We will not have another clinic on campus to offer the second shot, so you'll be on your own to get that scheduled.
