Our first graders had some special visitors this morning! Veterans from the 40 and 8 provided flags to our students and discussed flag etiquette. What a great program for our students and thank you for your service!




Tonight's HS Softball game Neoga @ Dieterich is cancelled due to wet conditions.

Our 8th Grade students recently visited Springfield to tour the Lincoln Home, Museum, and Tomb as well as the Illinois State Military Museum. They enjoyed their trip and wish to thank the rangers and volunteers that hosted them at these sites. Many of them said that they would like to visit again.





Our students and staff members had a great time watching Mr. Bob Tarter and his Animalogy assembly today! Mr. Tarter brought a hedgehog, a snake, a raccoon, and an owl with him today! Some of our staff members had a good look at the king snake and this was a great experience for our students!





We are excited to announce that the Dieterich Elementary PTO Spring Carnival is back!
