Four students in Mrs. Gonyeau's first grade class at Starr Elementary finished the school year as Super Improvers. Throughout the year they earned stars based on academics, behavior, overcoming a difficulty socially or emotionally, and perseverance. Once each student earned ten stars, they move up the "Super Improver" ladder! There are 10 levels starting with "Beginner" and working all the way up to "Living Legends!" These students made it all the way to the top of the ladder and were named Super Improver “Living Legends”. Way to go, Rock Starrs!

Students in Mrs. Amaezechi’s fourth grade class at Starr Elementary used the last two weeks to learn about the Regions of the United States. Each group was assigned a region and they put together a slideshow about cities, landmarks and industries to present to their classmates. Although school is almost out, learning hasn’t stopped for our Trojans!
We 💙 our community! In March, a PCS family experienced a house fire in which their first grade daughter, Payton, lost her entire collection of Golden Books. In working with Tammy Glupker, a request was submitted through the Care Portal and Friendship Wesleyan Church stepped in to lend a helping hand. Led by Ms. Tammy Steinhauser, their congregation presented Payton with 50 Golden Books! We are incredibly grateful for the amazing support from our community in lending a hand to our Trojan. THANK YOU Friendship Wesleyan Church for your generosity to Payton and her family - Plainwell Pride!
