Believing in ourselves (and each other) every single day! 🐾💙

Mrs. Van Meeteren's class ended the week with a fun hands on activity, crafting their very own class motto bracelets featuring the word "BELIEVE." These colorful reminders are helping our Panthers keep a positive mindset as they learn, grow, and take on new challenges together.

We love seeing our students wear their goals on their sleeves—literally! ✨

Our Panthers were thrilled to welcome Ogden Raptors players Nico Saltaformaggio (#12), Tyler Ganus (#13), and Jonathan Ramallo (#15) to talk all about Reading, Resiliency, and Teamwork! 📖💪

From favorite childhood books to bouncing back after a hard game, our students learned that practice makes perfect—both on the field and in the classroom. Even pro baseball players make time to read every night! 🐾✨

What’s your favorite book to read at home, Panthers? And who is your favorite Raptor player? Tell us in the comments! 👇📚 LETS GO RAPTORS!

✨ Abracadabra! First grade is off to a magical start! 🪄

Mrs. Wentz’s class whipped up some special magic bracelets today to test out a little first-day fortune-telling:

“Magic bracelet oh so white, I wish this wish with all my might! If another color does appear, I’m sure to have a great school year!”

These students were so excited to see those beads work their magic under the sun! ☀️ Color changes all around means one thing: it’s officially going to be an unforgettable year for these Little Panthers. 🐾💙🖤

Our 6th graders hit the ground running with an epic classroom scavenger hunt (swipe to see if you can spot who caught the silly bug 🤪📸).

The real magic happened at dismissal—our amazing 6th grade Bus Buddies stepped up to guide our newest Little Panthers to their buses. Watching our oldest students lead with kindness makes us so proud to be Plain City Panthers!

Here’s to an incredible school year ahead! 🎉 ✨

🐾 Attention Panther Families! 🐾
Road construction on 3600 West (between 1975 N and 2600 N) is underway, but we’ve got a game plan to keep our students safe heading into the new school year! 🎒✨Here’s what you need to know before day one: 🚶‍♂️ Walking from the South (1975 N)? Detour one block west to 3700 W, then head east on 2200 N to reach school.
🚸 Crossing 3600 W? Always use the staffed crosswalk at 2200 N & 3600 W.
💡 Pro-Tip for Kids: Stay on your side of the road! If you're walking on the west side, stay on the west side. No crossing except at the marked crosswalk.
🚌 Coming from the North/East? Bus routes and sidewalks are running as usual! Let's keep our work zones clear, stick to the safe routes, and kick off an amazing year together! 💙🖤🤍🔗 Full details & route map at plaincity3600w.com
