Cardinal Elementary’s Arctic Blast – Iditarod Edition!
Our students at Cardinal Elementary worked SO hard on this year’s Arctic Blast, and we couldn’t be more proud! This year’s theme took us on a journey through the Iditarod, the legendary dog sled race across Alaska. Students completed challenges and activities to “race” from Anchorage to Nome, all while practicing their math facts at home!
But the best part? Their hard work helped make a difference! Thanks to their dedication, we were able to donate $500 to the Siouxland Humane Society—and with an additional $500 from RotoRooter, we reached our $1,000 goal! 🐾 A HUGE thank you to RotoRooter for your generosity in helping our students give back to our community!
To celebrate, we had a blast announcing our guessing jar and bookmark design winners, racing through math problem dog sled challenges, learning about the humane society (and petting the cutest puppies 🐶🥰), making Iditarod trail mix, and even capping it all off with a dance party!
Work hard, play hard, and do good while you’re at it. That’s the Cardinal way! #CardinalPride

Inspiring Our Future Leaders!
Yesterday morning, Dr. Mark Adler delivered a powerful anti-bullying message to our 5th graders, encouraging kindness, empathy, and standing up for one another. His words left a lasting impact, reminding students that they have the power to create a supportive and inclusive community.
Thank you, Dr. Adler, for sharing such an important message! #KindnessMatters #AntiBullying #StrongerTogether #WeAreSSC
