Mathews' sixth-grade students participated in their annual cemetery walk this morning, hosted in collaboration with the Vienna Historical Society. Students explored the Vienna Township Cemetery, learning about the early settlers and the rich history of the community. Guided by members of the Vienna Historical Society, they uncovered stories behind tombstones and discovered notable figures such as Abiel Bartholomew, the first recorded burial in 1805, and prominent locals like Ithel F. Mathews and Beryl Baker.

Our Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd graders had special visitors this week! A big thank you to the Vienna and Fowler Fire Departments for stopping by to talk to our students about fire safety. The kids learned important tips on how to stay safe in case of an emergency!

The Mathews High School Band recently traveled to Mathews Elementary School to put on a performance for our younger students! It was a great opportunity for them to experience live music and learn more about our band program!
International Dot Day - global celebration of creativity, courage and collaboration inspired by Peter H. Reynolds' book The Dot - was celebrated on September 15. Our students at Mathews Elementary School heard the story and then used their imaginations to design their own unique dots!
The result? This beautiful collage that's on display in our hallway!
