3rd Annual Aumsville Fall Food Fight!
Hello Panther Families!
It's that time of year again, it's time for the 3rd Annual Aumsville Fall Food Fight! This Fall food drive supports families in our Cascade community in partnership with a local community group. All the food items donated will support Cascade School District families in food boxes that will be passed out just before Thanksgiving. Last year we collected enough food to support over 100 families with fall and winter food boxes. This year, we are hoping to collect even more food to support these wonderful families. We will collect food items here at Aumsville from Monday 11/6 - Friday 11/17.
Each building, the K-2 and the 3-5, will compete to collect the most food. The building that collects the most food items will win and they will get to vote on a staff member to pie in the face at an assembly. If you have any questions about the Food Fight or what items you can send in, please reach out to your student's teacher.
Here are the items your student will collect:
Kindergarten
Canned corn
Canned/packaged Applesauce
First Grade
Canned green beans
Boxed/bagged instant mashed potatoes
Packets of gravy mix
Second Grade
Canned carrots
Boxed/bag Dry pasta
Third Grade
Canned beans (any variety)
Boxed stuffing
Fourth Grade
Canned mixed vegetables
Pasta sauce
Fifth Grade
Canned/packaged peaches/pears
Canned soup or chili
Halloween Costumes for School
Halloween is around the corner and that means a fun time to dress up in our costumes!
Please remember all costumes need to be school appropriate.
Which means:
- Scary and creepy stays at home
- No Masks
- No Fake Blood
- No Weapons of any kind
It would be a good idea to send an extra change of clothes in your child's backpack just in case their costume becomes too much and they want to change into something more comfortable.

Volunteers
It truly takes an “all hands on deck” mentality to run a school effectively. If you are interested in volunteering in your student’s class, chaperoning a field trip, or helping out behind the scenes, please begin the background check process found here or on the Cascade School District website on the “parents and students” page.
The background check process takes two-four weeks, is completely free, and lasts for two years. We recommend completing this early in the school year so as to avoid delay.
You no longer need to provide proof of COVID vaccination in order to volunteer.
Administrative Assistants Team
We all know who really keeps the ship afloat around here, our wonderful Office staff, aka secretaries, aka admin assistants. They have been at Aumsville a total of 11 years, 8 years as our admin assistants. They love working together and we love them.

Compliment Corner
Too often we underestimate the power of a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn life around. If you would like to publically compliment someone at Aumsville Elementary or a community partner at an Aumsville Elementary event, you may do so here.
The compliment will show up in the next Panther Periodical!
