T.E. Baxter Elementary

Join us to "Chalk the Walk" of Baxter before the first day of school! Swing by to draw a picture or write an encouraging message for our students entering Baxter for the first time for the 2026-2027 school year. PTO will provide chalk, or you may bring your own as well. Come and go all day on 8/11.

📚✨ Baxter Families — it’s time to complete your student’s Skyward registration for the 2026–2027 school year!

Registering your student now helps save their seat at Baxter and allows us to begin creating class lists and planning for an amazing year ahead.

Thank you for your partnership and assistance as we prepare for another great year at Baxter Elementary! 💙💛

The Super Smart Thinking TRexes competed at the Destination Imagination Global Finals this past weekend — and we could not be more proud! 🦖🌎

Out of 34 teams at Globals, they earned 9th place in the WORLD!

This incredible competition included teams from 38 states and 14 countries, with 29 teams competing in their category alone.

Their journey this season has been amazing:
🏆 1st Place at Regionals
🔥 Torch Bearer Award for making a positive impact on their community by helping lead the charge to save electricity at our school
🏅 6th Place at State out of 34 teams
🧠 An impressive 94 out of 100 points on their Instant Challenge, where teams must think critically and creatively on the spot

Since September, these students have worked tirelessly — meeting multiple times a week to design, build, paint, write, and create every part of their performance themselves, including the set, costumes, and skit.

They received so many compliments throughout Globals, and their coral reef set absolutely stole the show! 🪸✨

We are beyond proud of their hard work, creativity, teamwork, and dedication. Congratulations, Super Smart Thinking TRexes — what an incredible season and accomplishment! 💚

Happy Speech Pathologist Day to Mrs. Gawelko and Mrs. Nordin!

Your kindness, patience, and encouragement make such a difference on our campus each day. We are so grateful for all you do to help our students grow in confidence and communication. Your hard work, dedication, and positive impact do not go unnoticed!💙

Who has the BEST PE/ART/MUSIC team around? WE DO! 🎉🎨🏃‍♀️🎶

Huge shout out to Mrs. Bass, her amazing team, our incredible students, and all of the parent volunteers for making today’s Field Day an event to remember! From the laughter and teamwork to the fun and friendly competition, today was filled with smiles and unforgettable memories.

Thank you for all of the hard work, energy, and love you poured into making this day so special for our kids!
