Spanish 4 students visited Bellwood Elementary today for their 3rd Spanish lesson of the year. Our students really enjoy these lessons!

Now that we have official results - we are excited to share that our FFA Agriscience team brought home some hardware from the 2026 Nebraska State FFA Convention! Congratulations to our team with members Annabelle Clary, Makenna Gangwish, Emma Hoeppner and Kayla Wieseler. They placed 3rd out of 141 teams. Kayla earned individual recognition and placed 5th out of 564 individuals. This is the largest contest at the convention and all team members placed in the top 40 of all individuals!

FCCLA State Leadership Conference 2026 is off to an amazing start! Last night, members kicked things off at the Opening General Session and had the honor of celebrating our State Officer, Ellie Bales, as she prepares to retire her position.

A special thank you to Ellie’s family for joining us at the State Officer Celebration. We also appreciate our principal, Mrs. Athow, for taking time out of her busy schedule to recognize Ellie’s accomplishments and dedication to FCCLA.

Scout Activities for the week of March 30th, 2026.

David City 7th and 8th grade students had the honor of listening to Rochelle Brown-Rainey, the daughter of Holocaust survivor Magda Brown, speak today. We cannot thank Rochelle enough for coming to our school to share these stories, and for the Institute for Holocaust Education for making it possible. Students were respectful throughout the entire presentation and asked thoughtful questions afterward. Fantastic job! Way to represent Scout Nation!

Congratulations to Brittin, Caelan, Trevin, Alexis, and Lorelai on fantastic performances at the Class B All-State Bands at Grand Island Northwest today!

3rd through 6th grade HAL (High Ability Learner) students visited the Butler County Landfill yesterday as a part of their study of engineering environmental solutions. They learned about the history of the landfill, how the landfill ensures air, water and land pollution is controlled, and got treated to a tour of the landfill. Thank you to Waste Connections for hosting our students and letting them see first hand what you do! When the students returned to the school, they talked about other ways communities deal with waste and worked on social skills and teamwork.

Scout Activities for the week of March 23, 2026

To wrap up their unit on Native American cultures Bellwood Elementary 3rd grade students created posters about different Native Americans from different regions. Then to celebrate each student brought something from their own cultural background.

The regular matches for spring Esports are complete, and playoffs begin next week! Things are looking good for our seeds.

Last night, we proudly welcomed our newest National Honor Society members—students who lead with integrity, excel academically, serve their community, and inspire others with their exceptional character. Congratulations on this well-deserved achievement!

What a great way to celebrate the end of 3rd Quarter at David City Elementary! 🎉

We kicked off our celebration in the gym recognizing some of our amazing students who earned Attendance Awards, Golden Tickets, and Positive Tickets. We are so proud of the hard work, kindness, and dedication our students show every day!

After the assembly, students headed back to their camp groups where they enjoyed some fun games and activities together. It was a great time filled with teamwork, laughter, and lots of smiles! 😄

To finish the celebration, students took time to make cards for members of our community to help spread kindness and appreciation beyond our school walls. ❤️

It was a wonderful way to wrap up the quarter and celebrate all the great things happening at DCE. Way to go, students!

Mrs. Meusch's Ag Education classes and FFA members have been busy getting the greenhouse ready for sales in May! Students have learned how to prepare the greenhouse, plant the plugs and daily plant care, while also seeing the business planning side of a greenhouse. Official open dates will be announced soon!
