We kicked off our Staff Appreciation Week today! We may be a week behind because of 6th Grade Camp, but our students came ready to celebrate our amazing staff.
Today, student council washed 24 cars in just 2 hours, staff enjoyed a small gift from us, and we started our annual staff quizzes. Congratulations to Mr. Costea for being our first quiz winner!
We are so thankful for everything our staff does each day and look forward to celebrating them the rest of the week! 💐 #minervapride 🦁

Day 2 of 6th Grade Camp was a blast! The kids were awesome, and we packed in so many fun activities. We’re pretty sure there were some very tired students, parents, and staff by the end of the day! A huge thank you to Elkhorn Valley Camp for helping make this camp such a great experience. A special thank you to our parent chaperones who attended camp and helped make the trip so successful. We hope everyone made amazing memories that will last a lifetime! #minervapride 🦁
Day 1 of 6th Grade Camp was a success! What a beautiful day filled with fun, laughter, teamwork, and great memories.☀️🏕️ #minervapride 🦁
