Holiday Hoops
As we celebrate National Special Education Day, we have a lot of things to be excited about as we enter our third year of being the host district in the Goddard Special Education Cooperative. Our cooperative serves 1,732 students in 21 school buildings within the communities of Goddard, Clearwater, Conway Springs, and Cheney. Our cooperative also serves students with disabilities who attend St. Elizabeth Ann Seton in Wichita, Holy Spirit in Goddard, St. Joseph in Conway Springs, and St. Peter in Schulte. Our staff in these communities do an incredible job of working with all students regardless of their disability. They define the mission of our cooperative, that all students can learn together in a school community and participate meaningfully via inclusive education systems that meet the unique needs of all students.

Hello Challenger Families!
We wanted to inform you that Main Street will be closed from 4th to Santa Fe tomorrow, the 31st from 2:15-3:15 pm for the parade. This closure does not impact us directly but there may be a lot of traffic going south from Discovery. Challenger is also asking for students to not dress in or bring costumes for Halloween. Thank you!
