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.

Welcome Back!!
🤖 Learning, Exploring & Embracing AI! 💡 This afternoon, our teachers stepped into the role of learners and participated in hands-on professional learning focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI)! From exploring new tools to thinking about how AI can support teaching and learning, our staff had the opportunity to learn, collaborate, and consider ways to thoughtfully incorporate AI into our classrooms. We are excited to see how this learning translates into new ideas and opportunities for our students! 📚✨ A huge THANK YOU to Aaron Mauer from the AEA for spending the afternoon with us and providing such valuable, engaging learning for our staff. We appreciate your expertise and the time you invested in helping us grow! 👏 #ProfessionalLearning #AIinEducation #TeachersAsLearners #FutureReady #LearningTogether
