✨ TGIF ✨

We wrapped up Staff Appreciation Week today with some totally rad ’90s-inspired treats, some seriously cool ’90s duds, and a few gift card prizes along the way 💜

More than anything, we hope our teachers and staff know just how appreciated they are. Thank you for the time, care, patience, encouragement, humor, and heart you pour into Baldwin Elementary every single day. The impact you make on students and families is bigger than you know.

We’re so grateful for all that you do. 🐾

✨ Gettin’ Crafty With It ✨

We kept the ’90s vibes going today with a little creativity and a lot of fun 💜

Teachers and staff got crafty decorating custom Bullpup lanyards — beads, bling, and plenty of personality.

And the trail mix bar? A definite highlight 🥨🍫🍬

Thanks for jumping in and making it such a great day — we appreciate you! 🐾

🍕📚 Livin’ La Vida Lunch-a! 📚🍕

Today’s Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week lunch brought some serious BOOK IT! nostalgia 😎

Staff at both elementary schools enjoyed personal pan pizzas from Pizza Hut, plus breadsticks and salad from Olive Garden for lunch today. Safe to say the break rooms smelled pretty amazing 👀

Huge thanks to Kansas State Bank for helping provide today’s lunch, to Pizza Hut for the generous discounts on the pizzas, and to Olive Garden for helping get all that delicious food together for our teachers and staff 💜

We love getting the chance to celebrate the amazing people who do so much for our students every day!

🥤✨ I Sip, You Sip, We Sip! ✨🥤

We’re keeping the 90s fun going today for Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week with a Dirty Soda Bar at both of our elementary schools 😎💜

Staff are mixing up their own custom drinks—whether they’re going with a classic combo or creating something totally new. Safe to say, it’s a hit!

Swipe to see some of the fun (and some pretty great drink creations 👀)

Just one of the ways we’re celebrating the amazing teachers and staff who do so much for our students every day 💜

We are so lucky to have such incredible teachers, staff, and principals at our elementary schools! 💜

Today, we wrapped up our Bullpup Stroll celebrations with assemblies recognizing the classes who ran the most laps and raised the most funds—and of course, had a little fun along the way!

Thanks to the amazing efforts of our students, some earned the chance to pie a teacher in the face and turn their principal into an ice cream sundae 🍦😄

A huge thank you to the staff members who volunteered to take part and make it so memorable: Mrs. King, Mrs. Bench, Miss Bones, Coach Ro, Mrs. Osborn, Mrs. DeLaTorre, Mrs. McBride, Mr. Wallsmith, Miss Harris, Miss Jacobsen, and Mr. Lemonds!!
