Duane J. Siepker, Principal

The way people

 work together is what produces excellence.”

W. Edwards Deming

Mileage Club

The Mileage Club, sponsored by Mary Greeley Medical Center, returns to St. Cecilia starting March 31 and ending May 23 as a way to encourage our young people to become more physically active. Students will have an opportunity to walk or run during designated recesses (participation is voluntary). A "toe token" is earned for every five miles logged and a "footprint" will be posted in the corridor for every ten miles completed.

Below is a graph from the Iowa Department of Education web site comparing our 3rd grade students with all 3rd grade students in the state and all 3rd grade students from AEA 11. The first year for importing our Iowa Tests of Basic Skills data was the 2006-2007 school year, thus you see no data for the 2005-2006 school year.  Like graphs will be seen for 4th and 5th grades.
