Celebrating Elk Ridge Middle School at the Recent Board of Education Meeting

It was a night to celebrate and take pride in students, teachers, and staff at Elk Ridge Middle School. Elk Ridge students led the Pledge of Allegiance and then shared with the Board the many reasons why their school is so special.

Kari Johnson, Student Body Officer, talked about the rich history of Elk Ridge Middle School dating back to 1994 when the school opened. She said there has always been a tradition of taking pride in moving things from good to great at Elk Ridge Middle. She praised the really great teachers who inspire student success and work so hard to provide opportunities. Kari said students enjoy a number of celebrations at the school throughout the year and they now have 25 clubs giving students a sense of belonging. Kari said over the years, the school’s commitment to students has not changed and they are still always moving from good to great.

Board members congratulated the students and wished them well this school year by shaking their hands at the end of the presentation.
