The fourth annual March Madness competition was an exciting journey! All month long, students competed in daily challenges across reading, math, and science to secure their place in the final games. After weeks of fierce competition, teams faced off in thrilling matchups, testing their skills and teamwork. In the end, one team emerged victorious as the champions, the Lopez Legends! Congrats to everyone who participated – you made this year’s March Madness unforgettable!

April is the Month of the Military Child!


It was a big week for Pretzel! 🐶🥨 Not only did he get to celebrate his 2nd birthday, but he also had the special chance to join the Pre-K classes for recess! It’s hard to say who had more fun—the kids or Pretzel—because there were plenty of giggles, tail wags, and zoomies all around.
As if that wasn’t exciting enough, everyone got to watch an excavator in action while the construction team worked hard on the school’s new wing. Nothing like some big machines and dirt-moving fun to make recess even better! 👷♂️🚧🦺
Safe to say, Pretzel gives working at Dewar two paws up! Wish him a happy 2nd birthday when you see him next week! 🐾🎉 🎂

April is the Month of the Military Child, a time to recognize children from military families for their contributions and sacrifices. We recognize that children serve too. This nationwide commemoration was established in 1986 by former Defense Secretary Casper Weinberger.
Dewar Elementary School is proud to have over 200 military-connected youth as part of our student body. We appreciate the varied life experiences they bring to our school community, and recognize their strength and resilience.
This page will be updated daily to spotlight a Military Kid throughout the month of April as we celebrate the Month of the Military Child. Thank you for your service.


March Madness is an exciting time, and it’s not just for basketball fans! For kindergarteners, March Madness can be a fun way to explore stories. We read 16 books that featured colorful illustrations and great storylines. We concluded our March Madness with a friendly competition basketball game between each of the seven kindergarten classes. Whether it’s a story about a big game or a friendly competition, books can inspire young kids to dream of their own adventures!
