The first weeks at the new Pana Elementary School building have been successful with smooth drop-offs and pick-ups for the parents, students enjoying their new facilities, and educators excited for another year of learning development inside the freshly renovated space. Pana Elementary School hosted a community-wide open house and ribbon cutting earlier this month and Principal Adam Metzger was pleased with the attendance and the response to the updates.

Painstaking work went into the library services at Pana Elementary as inventory from both Lincoln and Washington Elementary Schools needed to be transferred and "generefied" making reading selection easy for the kiddos.

With students returning to class, teachers learning their new tools, and all the other aspects that come with a momentous start-up like this, Principal Metzger wants to thank the dedicated custodial staff that ties up all the loose ends, making for a clean and safe day at school.
