Yeehaw!
Mrs. Bellerose’s first graders roped in great behavior and hard work to earn a rootin’ tootin’ Cowboy & Cowgirl Valentine’s Party! Watching her lasso her little cowpokes was the perfect way to celebrate a class that always wrangles up kindness, effort, and heart. 💕🐴
Way to go, first grade!

Using our fundraising funds, we recently purchased sleds for recess time. Students (and staff!) had a blast using the sleds. Everyone did a great job taking turns and being safe.

We had a wonderful time at our first annual Gingerbread & Giggles Decorating Party! This new community event replaced our traditional Santa’s Breakfast, and it was a huge success. Families received everything they needed to create their own gingerbread houses, enjoyed gingerbread men cookies and milk, and spent time visiting with Santa and Ginger. Each family went home with their completed gingerbread house and a Gingerbread Man book to enjoy together. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this event so special.







It's Christmas Spirit Week next week!

A Community Champion is a person who collaborates with a variety of partners to strengthen school, business, and non-profit relationships for the benefit of the community and our students.
Congratulations to Canaan's first Community Champion of the year, Mr Larry!
As Larry always says, he does it for the kids. He truly enjoys being around our students and takes pride in keeping our school looking its best for them. Larry balances his time between custodial duties and driving the bus—certainly not an easy schedule—but he makes it work with dedication and a smile. We’re grateful for all he does; Larry is an essential part of the Canaan Elementary community.
Thank you for all you do, Mr Larry!

Our annual Community Trunk or Treat was a huge success! Families, staff, and community members came together for an afternoon of festive fun. The parking lot was filled with creative trunks, smiling faces, and plenty of candy to go around. We were thrilled to see such a great turnout and appreciate everyone who helped make this event so special—from those who decorated trunks to those who donated treats. It was a wonderful way to celebrate fall and connect with our amazing school community!










Today our Pre-K through 2nd grade students celebrated our Special Persons Lunch! Each child had the chance to invite someone special — a parent, grandparent, family member, or friend — to join them for a cozy lunchtime together at school. The cafeteria was filled with smiles, laughter, and lots of love as students proudly shared their school with their guests. It was a wonderful reminder of how important our families and community are to our school family! ❤️
