Mrs. Fehrmann is new to our school district and she has been an AMAZING addition! My daughter is in her class & comes home every day telling me how wonderful kindergarten is. This is largely due to the work & dedication of Mrs. Fehrmann! She is committed to making sure that these young students are learning as much as they can & are becoming well rounded individuals. I am so proud to say that my daughter is in Mrs. Fehrmann’s class! I also am on the staff at Grundy Center with Mrs. Fehrmann & can attest that she brings so much to the table professionally! She has some great experiences to share & is constantly working to become a better teacher. She is a great collaborator & team player, & she really wants what is best for ALL of the students in our building!

The List for Tuesday, February 18th 2025

 

Welcome to The List,

The News International says Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are keeping a low profile they’re  about to enter a new phase of their relationship. Because they have only been with each other when they've been winning. This year, they both lost. She lost Album of the Year and now he just lost the Super Bowl.

This is interesting….Conway Twitty's real name was Harold Jenkins, but he was worried that DJs wouldn't think his name was interesting enough to play his music.  So, he pulled out a map and found two cities where he liked the name.  Conway, Arkansas . . . and Twitty, Texas.

Blossom 2/18/2025

OUR KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK IS BLOSSOM!!

Blossom was a former KIX Critter with her bonded mate. Her mate died and now Blossom is looking for a new home to call her very own.

Blossom may be a bit shy at first, but once she gets to know you, she’ll show you just how sweet and loving she truly is. She enjoys lounging in her bed, finding comfort in cozy spaces, and she’s quite the fan of playing in water bowls – it’s her unique little pastime! Once Blossom feels safe and comfortable, her sweet personality shines through. She’s a calm and gentle girl who just needs a little time and patience to warm up.

Blossom is spayed, up to date on all vaccinations, and has been tested for FeLV/FIV. She is also microchipped for her safety, so you can rest assured that she’s protected.

If you’re looking for a patient and loving companion who will gradually open up and steal your heart, Blossom could be the perfect match for you!
