Students in PE class at Farley Elementary are putting a fun twist on two classic sports with soccer golf! ⛳⚽
While following the rules of golf, students use a soccer ball to practice kicking, control, and precision. It’s a great way to build skills while having fun and staying active!

Meet Quentin Nauman, a standout athlete at Western Dubuque High School! 🏃
Quentin recently achieved what few high school runners ever do: he ran under 1:50 in the 800 meters and under 4:00 in the 1600 meters in the same meet. On top of that, he claimed multiple state titles and earned the Gatorade Iowa Boys Track & Field Player of the Year award.
But his story isn’t just about times and medals. It’s about getting better every day, pushing through competition, and setting a standard of excellence for his teammates. We’re proud to highlight Quentin’s journey and the inspiration he’s bringing to our schools. We will be cheering for Quentin as he competes for another state cross country title on Friday!

Our WDHS 12th grade government students recently took part in a lively dice game to simulate the Electoral College process. They acted as presidential candidates, tallying both the popular vote and Electoral College results to determine the winner. 🎲🗳️
After the simulation, they evaluated whether the Electoral College is the best way to elect our nation’s leader—applying what they’ve learned to a real-world civic debate. It was a fun and engaging way to bring American democracy to life in the classroom!

Peosta Elementary prekindergarten students have been busy exploring math concepts in fun, hands-on ways! 🎃
Students practiced identifying patterns and weighed different items to find out if they were heavier, lighter, or the same as a pumpkin. Learning through play at its best!
