Mrs. Johnson's class has been finding fun and creative ways to enjoy their indoor recesses this past week with the cold temperature's. Staying active, warm, and having fun!


Our 4th grade and Kindergarten classes teamed together to read to one another. Connecting with one another on different levels is so important and we try and incorporate that as often as we can!







This group of students were rewarded for a special lunch with Mrs. Pfaff for being the hardest working group in the class this week! Way to go, guys!


Come be part of an amazing team! Now hiring for a Mixed Abilities Para for the 24-25 school year! Please contact mhay@goddardusd.com if interested!

Goddard Public Schools Staff and Families,
There will be NO SCHOOL on Friday, January 10, 2025, due to severe winter weather and hazardous driving conditions.
Please be safe, and thank you for your continued support.


Goddard Public Schools Families,
Goddard Public Schools will not be in school on Tuesday, January 7, 2025, due to ongoing hazardous driving conditions.
City, County, and District crews are working tirelessly to clear roadways, parking lots, and sidewalks, and we offer our deepest appreciation to them for their dedicated efforts. Given the extent of snow/ice in neighborhoods across the District, additional time is needed to ensure a safe return to school.
Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

"A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events, and outcomes. It is a catalyst and it sparks extraordinary results." – Wade Boggs
Congratulations to Mrs. Robin Perkins for receiving the District Attitude Award! Robin was nominated by Piper White and Dane Baxa. Piper White wrote, “The print shop is not an easy or stress-free environment especially when you get multiple orders each day from all around the district, but Robin does so with a smile on her face. At the beginning of the year (or her busiest time) she and her staff worked so hard to make sure all staff had the orders before the first day of school. On top of just getting us the orders she also wrote positive messages that always leave us smiling. Robin communicates effectively, and if there is ever a rush order needed, she is not afraid of the challenge. Robin is a rock star!”
Dane Baxa wrote, “Robin Perkins stepped up to help the District in a big way after the sudden loss of Nancy Johnson. Robin is more than just a skilled Print Shop operator; she’s a problem-solver who brings positivity and energy to her work every day. She often anticipates the needs of teachers, administrators, and staff, frequently stepping in to assist with last-minute requests and high-volume projects without hesitation. Her reliability and willingness to do whatever it takes to support others have made her an invaluable resource.
She developed a plan to visit every school during orientation, making a personal connection with as many staff members as possible, building positive relationships, and explaining the services she provides and the process for submitting print jobs.
Beyond her exceptional technical abilities, Robin’s attitude exemplifies the values of our district. Her commitment to excellence and genuine kindness uplift everyone she works with. She is always quick to offer encouragement, inspiring our Community Relations Team and those around her.”


Today, on Veterans Day, we honor and remember the brave men and women who have served in our military. Their sacrifice, dedication, and courage protect the freedoms we hold dear. Thank you, veterans, for your service and for the incredible strength you’ve shown in defense of our country.


Come join us for a night of family fun at Earhart this Thursday from 6:30-8:00! See you there!
