📣 No School Reminder 📣
Just a reminder that there will be NO SCHOOL April 3rd–7th. This includes Hillyard's Students, who will not report during this time.
We hope everyone enjoys a safe, restful break and takes time to recharge. Classes will resume on Wednesday, April 8th.
Enjoy the break! 🌸✨
Today is Paraprofessional Appreciation Day; the perfect opportunity to recognize that our school is stronger because of our paraprofessionals. They do the quiet, constant work that keeps classrooms running and kids supported. They show up every day ready to help, jump in, and do what’s best for students.
Paraprofessionals bring steadiness, patience, humor, and heart into spaces that truly need all four. So much of what goes right in a school happens because a para made it happen.
Take a minute to recognize and thank them. Thank them. Let them know their work matters and their presence makes a difference.
Thank you Mrs. Myers, Ms. Jai, Mrs. Jacobs, and Mrs. Gentry, for everything you do today and everyday!

We are grateful for the countless hours you give, the tough decisions you navigate, and the vision you bring to Stewartsville C-2. Thank you for partnering with us to create a positive, supportive, and student-centered school environment.

We’re excited to welcome the Scholastic Book Fair to our Stewartsville School Library from March 9–12!

Thank you for supporting our readers and helping build a love of books! 📖❤️
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the amazing members of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks at the Elks Lodge #2615 in Cameron for their incredibly generous donation to help pay off overdue student lunch balances.
Your kindness and commitment to supporting students in our community truly makes a difference. Because of your generosity, several students and families will experience a little less stress and a lot more support. Acts like this remind us how strong our communities are when we come together to care for one another.
Thank you for investing in our students and helping ensure that every child is supported. Your generosity is deeply appreciated! ❤️🍎
