We can't wait to kick off another amazing year with Wildcat Families!
We are excited to welcome our students back into the building soon! Our staff has been working hard to prepare for the 2026–2027 school year, and we can’t wait to see our hallways and classrooms filled with students again.
Attached is my Back-to-School Letter with some important information about the year ahead. Please take a few minutes to read through it as we prepare for a great year together.
We also hope you’ll join us for our Wildcat Roundup Back-to-School Night on Friday, August 14th at 5:00 PM. We encourage all families to stop by to meet their teacher and school staff, drop off school supplies, and spend some time together as a school community. We’ll have food trucks, music, a bouncy house, a dunk tank, and more fun on the playground!
A reminder that our first day of school is Tuesday, August 18th. We are looking forward to a great start!
Moving forward, families can expect a weekly callout from me each Sunday at 5:00 PM with important information, upcoming events, and reminders for the week ahead. We know there is a lot to keep track of throughout the school year, and our goal is to keep you informed and connected. Information and updates can also be found on our district website and Haven Grade School Facebook page.
We are grateful for your partnership and can’t wait to welcome our Wildcats back. See you soon!

The USD 312 Board of Education approved moving Emmy Johnson into the role of half-time Assistant Early Education Director and half-time Interventionist.
As our Early Education Department continues to grow, this position will provide additional leadership and support for our youngest learners and families. Emmy brings a wealth of experience to this role, having served as a classroom teacher at Yoder Charter School and as an Interventionist at Little Learners in Yoder.
We are excited for Emmy to step into this new role and continue helping our early education programs grow and provide quality opportunities for students across USD 312.
Congratulations, Emmy, and thank you for your continued commitment to our students and families!
As we prepare for another school year, we are looking for parents and family members who are interested in becoming part of the Haven Grade School PTO!
Our PTO plays an important role in supporting our students, staff, and school community. Throughout the year, we help organize fun events for students and families while also coordinating fundraisers that provide valuable resources and opportunities for our school.
Whether you're a returning family or brand new to Haven Grade School, we would love to have you involved!
There are many ways to participate:
Serve in a formal PTO leadership position.
Attend our monthly PTO meetings when you're able.
Volunteer to help with events and activities throughout the year—even if you're unable to attend meetings regularly.
We understand that everyone has different schedules, so there is no expectation that you attend every meeting or volunteer for every event. Whether you can give a few hours throughout the year or would like to take on a larger leadership role, your support makes a meaningful difference for our students and staff.
If you are interested in joining the PTO or would simply like to learn more about how you can help, please email Principal Braedon Morrison at bmorrison@havenschools.com.
Thank you for considering this opportunity to partner with us in making Haven Grade School an even better place for our students to learn, grow, and thrive. We look forward to welcoming new faces to our PTO this year!
Go Wildcats!
