East Union Elementary offers Summer School each June, and today we completed another successful program, thanks to the commitment of a number of our staff members. All teachers are certified East Union educators; pictured here are Mrs. Robin McNutt, Ms. Kacie Ripperger, Mrs. Tara Luther, Ms. Autumn Hoadley, Mr. Marcus Patten, and Mr. Brice Updike. Not pictured by equally appreciated is Mrs. Debbie Aldrich. Students enjoy delicious daily meals provided by our Food Service Personnel, including Mrs. Tawnya Jones, Mrs. Shannon McMillen, and Mrs. Andrea Clear (who also drives a school vehicle as a member of the Transportation Department). Piloting the big yellow buses are Mr. Dale Denton and Mr. Gary Clear, and Mrs. Christine Bear works summer hours as well, serving as our Building Secretary and also as a member of the Maintenance Department. Mrs. Joan Gordon, Elementary Principal, is very grateful for those who are involved in ensuring that our Little Eagles receive the very best! Most importantly, our student attendance was excellent, with 85% of our students in attendance for at least 80% of the days Summer School was offered. Thank you to all who continue to make East Union “the first choice for all families!”
Good luck to our very own Seth Ripperger as he competes at the National Skills USA Championships in Atlanta, Georgia, this week! Seth will be a Senior this year and is dual enrolled in SWCC's CTE courses.

The school year may be over, but the learning continues. Mrs. Emily Cummings, Mrs. Allison Grandfield, and Mrs. Joan Gordon had the privilege of attending the “Leading Literacy Change Academy for District Leaders,” sponsored by the Iowa Reading Research Center in Iowa City on June 20th. Shown here with Nina Lorimor-Easley, IRRC Associate Director for Education and Outreach, these elementary staff members spent the day acquiring information about evidence-based systemic processes that can lead to better outcomes for East Union’s young readers. Information will be shared with all teachers during upcoming professional development. Throughout the day, much of the content affirmed that East Union already has systems in place that support its “High Performing” status (along with outstanding teachers!), but there are always ways to refine the services we provide. We appreciate the opportunity to learn and grow, right along with our Little Eagles!
Due to wet field conditions, today's JH Softball games in Diagonal have been cancelled.
