This August and September, our EC–5th grade Eagles are discovering Wellsville through hands-on place-based learning!

Through the KRIATE project, Wellsville teachers are partnering with Kansas State University to create lessons that connect classroom learning to our community. Students are exploring Wellsville’s history, people, places, and traditions through activities like creating Main Street murals, learning about local symbols, exploring historic buildings, studying changes in transportation, and talking with community members.

These experiences help students see their hometown in a new way while connecting their learning to the world right outside their doors.

Be sure to visit our students’ work during Wellsville Days on September 26th at the Milestone Events Center from 8:00–11:00 a.m. and celebrate the wonderful work of our students and teachers! ❤️💙🦅

Special thanks to the Patterson Family Foundation for generously funding this work and to our Wellsville teachers and KSU partners for making these learning experiences possible!
