Andrew Community,
High School sporting events are getting ready to start in both Maquoketa and Bellevue. If you plan to attend sporting events in either district, there is important information/expectations to know before attending. If you have any questions about these expectations, please reach out to the athletic director or superintendent for that district.

1st LEAP movie night this year.
Everyone is having a great time.



🏈⚾🏀🏐 Team Spirit was in full force today! 🏐🏀⚾🏈
Our students showed their PRIDE by sporting their favorite team shirts and jerseys! From football and basketball to baseball and beyond, our halls were filled with team colors, smiles, and school spirit.
We love seeing our students come together, celebrate what they enjoy, and show that being a leader means taking pride in who you are and supporting others too!
Way to represent, Andrew Hawks! ❤️🖤🦅

Student Card Collectors in the area,
Please come and join the 21st Annual Cards For Kids show this Saturday in Preston from 10:00 am-2:00 pm.
Students have attended from Lancaster, WI, to Davenport, IA, to Iowa City, IA, and schools in between.
Craig initially started this event 26 years ago to get students involved in a productive hobby instead of cell phones. Fast-forward to today, and it is more important now than ever.
Craig NEVER makes any money on this event, and students profiting from the event is not remotely a goal. It's about students learning a buy-sell-trade hobby, getting their collectibles out, and enjoying 4 hours of each other's company.
This year, the event is giving away $1,500 in prizes (see attachment) thanks to local donors.
