Due to an equipment issue in the Lake Benton gym, tomorrow's girls basketball game against Iroquois/Lake Preston is being moved to Elkton. Game times will remain the same.

Please check your student's lunch balances. We would like to have all negative balances cleared before we go on Christmas break.

Weekly Events at Elkton Public School!

Come by the Elkton Community Center today to meet Santa, play games, and enjoy some chili - all while helping support Elkton High Schools FCCLA and Educators Rising groups!

Day 2 and Holiday Road is ramping up. Turns out there are several competitive folks among our staff.

Thank you to everyone who came out to support our students and celebrate the season with us at our Winter Concert last night. The performances were fantastic…and let’s be honest, it’s not every day that a hippopotamus makes a surprise appearance in the middle of a song! 🦛🎶 We’re so proud of our students and grateful for our amazing school community.

Today was Day 1 of the Holiday Road “competition” for our staff! The game will run through next Wednesday and involves all kinds of goofy challenges that are worth points upon completion. Thanks to many local businesses and community members, we can give away cool items and gifts to the staff throughout the week as the game progresses. We’re excited to recognize those folks during the week, as well. It’ll all wrap up with several “Grand Prizes” given away at a staff celebration Wednesday!

Over the next few days, we plan to share some of the fun stuff going on our social media – so be sure to check back!
