Strasburg Elementary Newsletter
March 13, 2026
This week we had the opportunity to host our 2nd Annual Regional Spelling Bee, welcoming top spellers from Strasburg, Bennett, Byers, Deer Trail, and Kiowa. Our SES students represented us incredibly well, with Cohen Nelson placing 1st in 3rd grade, Alani Rodriguez placing 1st in 4th grade, and Greyson Rickett placing 2nd in 5th grade. We also celebrated our February House Award winners, recognizing students who earned the most House Points for demonstrating great character and academic excellence. Looking ahead, we are excited for our Spring House Party on Friday, March 20th, where students will come together to celebrate their community in their Houses. Finally, thank you to the families who have already completed the 5Essentials Parent Survey, your feedback helps guide our focus for continued improvement, and we encourage anyone who hasn’t yet had a chance to please take a few minutes to share your thoughts.

Spring Break (According to Parents)
Spring break is coming, the kids shout “YAY!”
Parents smile and nod… in their own quiet way.
Pajamas till noon, snacks every hour,
The living room slowly losing its power.
“I’m bored!” begins at 9:03…
“Can I have a snack?” times thirty-three.
But when the bus comes back next week,
Parents cheer for quiet at last.
