We are almost two weeks into the new school year and we are off and running. The students and staff are back in the swing of things and the educational opportunities are better than ever. We cannot wait to see what the 2024-2025 school year will bring.
We have progress on our playground improvements. In coordination with the Bowman County Community Grant, along with the Scranton Lions and Friends of Fireman organizations, we have new playground equipment up on the baseball complex. The children sure utilized it this past summer and we will use it during recess times this school year as well. Also, the new basketball court is up and all that remains to be done there is to put up the surrounding fence and paint the court. The cement has to be cured for 2 months prior to us painting the court with non-stick paint, so that will be done at a later time. We will put up temporary lines so this surface can also serve as a pickleball court. Thank you Bowman/Slope Community Foundation and DWB with your grants to assist with this project.

We would also like to remind parents that meals can be paid by stopping in the office. We encourage everyone to fill out the free and reduced meal application forms. Many of our federal programs are determined by our percentage of patrons who qualify for free or reduced meals, so if you have not filled one out yet, please do so. All information is kept confidential. Thank you!
A large push for us this year is to "Elevate our Well-Being". We want to focus on our wellness. We talk about all areas of wellness, weather that be physical, emotional, intellectual, social, or environmental. We are encouraging our students to show up, make positive choices, and support one another during this journey here at Scranton Public School.
I want to thank our community for the tremendous support in the past. We will continue to provide the best experiences possible for our students, staff, and entire community.. Our students and staff know what a wonderful community we have and will continue to represent this great community to the best of our abilities. Lets have a great 2024-2025 school year. Soar Night Hawks Soar!
Sincerely
Kelly Pierce
Superintendent
