Yesterday was a truly special day at Jefferson Elementary! 🎶 They had the absolute pleasure of hosting the New Horizons Band for a wonderful live performance for students.
It was a beautiful blending of generations, showing that a love for music connects us all, no matter our age. The students had an amazing time listening, clapping along, and experiencing the joy of live instruments.
A huge THANK YOU to the talented musicians of the New Horizons Band for sharing your time, energy, and passion with us! 🎺🥁❤️

Riley Brewer from York Elementary School was honored at the board meeting during the Middlebury Moment. Here is what Dr. Snyder shared about Riley:
Riley’s journey has been one of steady growth and real determination. There was a time when managing his emotions felt overwhelming, and big feelings sometimes took over his day. He needed extra support and guidance to work through those moments. But Riley has put in the daily effort to better understand himself and has grown in self-control and self-awareness, learning how to recognize his emotions, talk through them, and make positive choices.
This year marks a huge milestone. Riley has made so much progress that the need for additional adult support was removed from his plan because it was no longer necessary. Riley shows us what the results can look like when you combine determination, courage, and a lot of hard work. Principal Kominowski said “What makes Riley even more special is his heart. He is one of the most caring students we have. When other students are struggling, Riley notices. He can relate, he offers advice, and he genuinely wants to help. He has become a leader in his small group, building others up and showing them what growth really looks like. Riley’s journey shows what’s possible when you keep working and don’t give up on yourself. We are proud of the confident, self-aware, and compassionate young man he is becoming, and it is such an honor to celebrate the incredible strides he has made.”
Congrats to you, Riley. We are so incredibly proud of you!

John Stephens was honored during the Middlebury Moment at the school board meeting last week. John was named a 2026 Lilly Endowment Community Scholar and will receive four years of full tuition, fees, and a stipend for books and equipment at any accredited college or university in Indiana! This prestigious scholarship recognizes his exceptional academic performance, leadership, community involvement, and character. John submitted an essay that was selected by NHS administration and counselors to represent Northridge High School. After advancing, he participated in an interview process and was ultimately chosen as this year’s recipient. John was nominated by Mrs. Whitehead, Dr. Whonsetler, Mr.Highley, and Mrs. Clabaugh. Congratulations!!!
Northridge Middle School presented information at last week's school board meeting about their theater troupe. This group performed at State earlier this year after winning the regional competition. Each student shared about what theater means to them, how long they have been involved, and what their favorite memory was from this year. To cap things off, they gave a short performance to the school board that was very humorous. We are very proud of you all!!
Heritage Intermediate School students are seen in some candid moments from earlier this week. Learning can be fun and friendships are important in the lives of our students!

🛠️ Happy National Maintenance Worker Appreciation Day! 🛠️
Today, we are taking a moment to celebrate the absolute unsung heroes of our school! 🦸♂️🦸♀️
Our incredible maintenance team does so much behind the scenes that goes unnoticed. Every single day, they are working hard to ensure our school runs efficiently and, most importantly, safely for all of our students and staff.
From fixing the things we don't even realize are broken, to putting in the physical labor to keep our campus and grounds looking beautiful, we truly couldn't do it without them. 🌳🏫✨
If you see a member of our maintenance team today, please join us in giving them a massive THANK YOU for everything they do! 👏💙

Good morning from art class at Northridge Middle School! Students are already hard at work!
Our 4th-grade students at Heritage Intermediate School took a trip back in time last week for their first annual Pioneer Day! Ten classes rotated through hands-on stations to experience what life was like on the frontier.
Our young pioneers stayed busy:
Churning fresh butter and sewing quilt squares.
Testing their skills at marbles and masterfully square dancing.
Crafting covered wagons to prepare for the trail.
Practicing communication and trade through a bartering simulation between Native Americans and European settlers.
It wasn’t just a lesson—it was an experience! History really comes to life when you’re living it.
Middlebury Elementary School students have been hard at work this week! We love their productivity!!
