🏗️💪We are excited to share plans for a new Community Wellness & Fitness Center addition to Ethan School District.
This proposed project will add a much-needed weight room and fitness space that will benefit our entire community, students, and staff.🏋️♀️
This facility will provide:
🌟Expanded strength and conditioning opportunities for all student-athletes.
🌟Improved wellness opportunities for students, staff, and community members.
🌟A safe and modern fitness space to serve the town of Ethan for many years to come.
Because the district must prioritize academic programs and daily operational needs, we do not have available school funds for non-academic capital projects such as this. For that reason, this project will be funded through private donations, grants, and community fundraising efforts. No general education funds will be used.
Why invest in this project? Strong schools and strong communities depend on attracting and retaining young families. Providing quality facilities and opportunities helps ensure Ethan remains a great place to live, learn, and work.
💙This project is also intended to honor the memory of Mr. Harter by creating a place that reflects what he stood for—hard work, dedication, a love for sports, and a deep commitment to the students he impacted throughout his life. His influence on countless young people will not be forgotten. Though he was taken from us far too soon, his legacy will continue to inspire future generations.💙
This effort will require strong partnerships among the school, local businesses, community members, and supporters who believe in investing in the future of our students. We are grateful for the generosity and encouragement that make projects like this possible.
💛❤️Thank you for your continued support, if you want to support the project, please contact the school business office.
Design and drawings will be shared soon!

❤️ Congratulations to Jeralona Harkcom and Kate Graham on qualifying for the in Washington, D.C., June 6–10!
Their project was “Bandannas for a Cause”, they have been making bandannas for dogs with profits going to the local animal shelter. To help raise funds for their trip, the students are selling handmade dog bandannas and now expanded to cats as well. Each purchase supports travel expenses and helps them represent our school on the national stage.
The girls have worked extremely hard to earn this opportunity, and we are asking for community support to help offset travel and competition expenses for Nationals. Any donation is greatly appreciated and will help represent Ethan proudly on the national stage! ❤️
If you are interested in donating, please contact Mrs. Gregerson or send donations to Ethan School marked “FCCLA Nationals.”
Good luck, Jeralona Harkcom and Kate Graham! ❤️

🤠 “Look at these clothes… aren’t they neat?
Wouldn’t you think our lost and found’s complete?
Wouldn’t you think we’re the school… the school that has everything?” 🤠
From hoodies and jackets to earbuds, a GreatLIFE membership card, water bottles, and more — our lost and found collection has grown quite impressive! 👀
Take a look through the pictures below and see if your Rustler is missing anything. We’d really love for these items to make it back home instead of becoming permanent school decorations. 🤠🧥🎒
Items can be claimed in the elementary hallway. Please stop by soon!
