End-of-Year Field Trip to Klemgard Park
Endicott School District Wildcats | K-5 Students
What a wonderful way to celebrate the end of another fantastic school year! Our Endicott Wildcats in grades K-5 enjoyed a memorable day at Klemgard County Park in Colfax, Washington, for our annual end-of-year field trip.
A Perfect Day in Nature
Nestled in a forested canyon in the Union Flat area, Klemgard Park provided the ideal setting for our young Wildcats to explore, play, and connect with nature. The 59-acre park offered plenty of space for our students to spread out and enjoy the beautiful Pacific Northwest scenery.
Activities & Highlights
Picnic Fun
Students gathered at the park's picnic shelters to enjoy lunch together, sharing stories and laughter with classmates and teachers. The open grass fields provided ample room for games and activities, with plenty of energy and excitement all around.
Nature Trail Adventure
Our students embarked on the park's 0.75-mile trail that winds across Union Flat Creek and through shady hillsides. The short hike was perfect for all grade levels, allowing our youngest learners to experience the joy of outdoor exploration while our older students practiced their observation skills, spotting birds and identifying plants along the way.
Playground & Free Play
The park's playground was a hit with students of all ages, offering a chance to climb, swing, and play in the fresh air. The peaceful, forested surroundings—framed by farmland—created a safe and inviting atmosphere for everyone to relax and enjoy.
A Day to Remember
This field trip was more than just a fun outing—it was an opportunity for our Wildcats to build friendships, appreciate the natural beauty of our region, and create lasting memories as we closed out another successful school year. Thank you to all the teachers, staff, and parent volunteers who made this day possible!
Go Wildcats!

The Endicott School District Pre-School recently experienced an exciting hands-on science adventure—hatching baby chicks right in the classroom! As part of a learning unit on life cycles and animals, students carefully observed eggs in an incubator, eagerly counting down the days until the big moment.
When the first tiny cracks appeared, the classroom buzzed with excitement. Soon, fluffy yellow chicks emerged, chirping and exploring their new world. Students learned about how chicks grow inside the egg, what they need to stay healthy, and how to care for living creatures with kindness and responsibility.
This project brought science to life in a memorable way, sparking curiosity and wonder in every student. The preschoolers loved watching their chicks grow and change each day, and the experience created lasting lessons about nature, patience, and care.
The Endicott Wildcats are proud of their youngest learners for their enthusiasm and curiosity—what an egg-cellent adventure!

Let’s not lose our humanity in this process.
This is a beautiful community filled with incredible students, families, educators, and staff, and the actions of one individual outside of the school setting do not define the heart of who we are.
There are real lives hurting behind all of this, and the weight of it reaches far beyond what people see online or read in headlines. This impact is being felt by students, families, friends, coworkers, teammates, and an entire community trying to process something deeply painful and difficult.
As educators, please know this with absolute certainty: our students are, and always will be, our number one priority. We protect, support, guide, and care for children every single day with everything we have in us. The educators and staff within this district show up daily with integrity, compassion, empathy, and a deep commitment to the well-being of our students.
There are unfortunately moments in life where individuals make devastating choices that create ripple effects far beyond themselves. Those choices hurt people, families, and communities in ways words cannot fully explain. While schools work tirelessly to create safe, supportive environments for children, we cannot control every decision made outside of our doors, and that reality is heartbreaking for all of us.
To those directly impacted by this situation, please know this community cares deeply about you. You are loved, supported, and not alone. We also ask others to remember that healing does not come from speculation, cruelty, insults, or sensationalism. We cannot become so focused on the “story” that we lose our empathy, compassion, and humanity toward the real people living through it.
Our students are watching how adults respond during difficult moments. Our own children are reading comments, hearing conversations, and carrying emotions they may not fully understand yet. Words matter. How we choose to respond matters.
As this situation continues to unfold, we ask for grace, empathy, and respect, not only for those directly impacted, but for the many students, staff members, and families trying to move through this with strength and compassion.
In St. John, we will continue doing what we have always done: loving our students fiercely, supporting one another, showing up for kids, and leading with heart even in the hardest moments.
We cannot always control what others do, but we can control how we respond. And here, we choose empathy, support, accountability, and humanity.

Please join us in congratulating Catalina Torres Rodriguez and Jenn Johnson on this well-deserved recognition. These two represent the very best of our school, our community, and the heart behind what it means to be an Eagle. 🦅
Catalina Torres Rodriguez was recognized with the Student Leadership Award, and there could not be a more deserving recipient.

She is a fierce advocate for others, someone who sees the good in people, supports those around her, and carries herself with kindness and grace. Catalina honors her family, her school, and her community in everything she does. Her courage, determination, leadership, and heart make a lasting impact on everyone fortunate enough to know her. She has big dreams ahead of her, and we cannot wait to watch her soar. ✨
Jenn Johnson was recognized with the Certificate of Merit for the incredible impact she has made on students and our school community. Jenn pours her heart into everything she does as an educator, coach, mentor, advisor, and leader. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure students feel supported, valued, encouraged, and cared for. Whether she is teaching in the classroom, coaching on the court, volunteering her time, organizing events, or simply showing up for kids when they need someone most, Jenn leads with selflessness, compassion, and unwavering dedication. Her impact reaches far beyond academics, and our students are better because of her. ❤️
Awards like these are about more than accomplishments. They recognize character, heart, leadership, resilience, service, and the lasting impact individuals make on the people around them. Catalina and Jenn embody all of those things beautifully.
