🏆 Let’s Bring the Trophy Back to Florence Wilson!

It has been a few years since the USD 457 Ronald McDonald House Pop Tab Trophy called Florence Wilson home, and we think it’s time for a homecoming! We are officially competing in this year's collection contest, and we need your help to clinch the win.

Why it matters: The Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) provide a "home away from home" for families with children receiving medical treatment. Many of our own FW families have been supported by RMHC during difficult times—this is our chance to give back!

The Stakes:


  • The Trophy: We want that traveling trophy back in our hallways for the 2026-2027 school year!

  • The Reward: If we win, Mrs. L is throwing a Very Special Fun Day for the entire school!

Drop Off/Pick Up

Pull all the way to the curb to pick up your child. This keeps the lane clear for other cars. DO not drop your child off in the middle of the street.

If you park across the street or on a side street, you must walk across the street to meet your child. DO NOT have your child walk across the street alone.

Remember that the church parking lot is available if the street out back is full.

Be respectful of our neighbors. Do not block their driveways or mailboxes.

Always follow all traffic laws. Drive slowly, obey all signs, do NOT stop in the middle of the street, and be aware of crossing guards.

Each year we ask families to complete our Leader in Me MRA Survey. THis survey helps us identify areas we do well and areas that we can improve. Please take a few minutes to answer the questions in the linked survey. Thank you!
