Ithaca's beloved former secretary, Christine Schmitt, entered Ithaca Elementary School into the Rally to Read book giveaway through Barnes & Noble. Because of her thoughtfulness and dedication to our students, we are thrilled to announce that she won! Christine’s primary wish was to see these brand-new books in the hands of our students to foster a lifelong love of reading.
We are incredibly grateful to Christine for her lasting impact on our school community. We hope our students and their families enjoy many hours of reading this new treasure together!

“The mission of an architect is to help people understand how to make life more beautiful...” —Frank Lloyd Wright
A talented group of twenty high-school students from the CESA 3 region, including Ithaca High School seniors Jadyn Boland and Randy Pichardo-Flores, participated in the year-long Taliesin Design Challenge. Students explored Frank Lloyd Wright, his design philosophy, and his designs for small family homes and neighborhoods from a century ago. Through individual and group design challenges, students designed and prototyped their own small home for a pre-determined location appropriate for the 21st century. Student designers will present their projects in this culminating showcase event on Thursday, May 14th from 5:00pm until 7:00pm at Frank Lloyd Wright's Hillside Home School at Taliesin. Over the course of the 2025-2026 school year, these students have explored the design principles of organic architecture to form their own small-scale design.

Ithaca Elementary 4th graders learn about and celebrate Arbor Day and Earth Day!
Arbor Day is a holiday during which individuals and groups are encouraged to plant trees. The holiday originated in Nebraska in 1872 but is now celebrated nationally and in many other countries. Wisconsin’s Arbor Day is celebrated on the last Friday in April and is usually linked with Earth Day. In Wisconsin, the Wisconsin DNR helps celebrate Arbor Day with an environmental education program designed to teach students the importance of trees within our environment. Annually, the DNR provides thousands of free tree seedlings to Wisconsin fourth-grade students for this celebration.
Earth Day has "roots" in Wisconsin! Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson founded Earth Day, with the first celebration on April 22, 1970, mobilizing 20 million Americans to demand environmental protection. In 1969, Gaylord Nelson had an idea for a national teach-in on environment problems and protections. That idea became Earth Day.
Plant these seedlings to celebrate Earth Day and Arbor Day. These trees also serve as a sign of hope for the future of our planet and our dedication to protect it.
Popcorn Friday will be Friday, April 24th. Elementary students, your classroom teacher will take your order and money. Middle School and High School students you will be able to purchase yours during breakfast, at the end of your hallways. Cost is $0.50 per bag, limit 2 bags per person.

Over spring break, 20 of our high school music students had the wonderful opportunity to take a trip to New York City! They had a plethora of great experiences such as tours of NBC studios, Radio City Music Hall, and Lincoln Center, having a workshop with a broadway performer, and seeing all of the best sights the city has to offer. A huge thank you to Progressive Travel , travel agent and guide Mary Beth Behrens, director Kennedi Kjellberg and all of our amazing chaperones for making this trip such a success! Thank you as well to Juli Thompson and our Ithaca Music Boosters for all your fundraising assistance. It was an incredible trip with many great memories made!
