A Note from Mrs. Barber
Northeast Families,
As we come to the end of the school year, I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for your support and involvement throughout the year. It has been a great year, and I hope every family has a wonderful summer break sharpening their saw and synergizing with family and friends.
Thank you for all you do to help make our Northeast community a positive and enriching environment for our students.

Take care and see you in August!

A Farewell to PTO President ~ Laura Murphy (Luetje)
How quickly 8 years goes, and to think my youngest will graduate from Ankeny in only 7 years! What a ride it has been. Northeast staff and teachers have become a family to me the last 8 years that I have served as the PTO President. I am so lucky to have been able to be a part of such an amazing school along with my children. I learned more than I ever thought I could about the mini city that runs on Trilein each day, I gained more friends than I ever imagined, getting to know parents and families, and my gratefulness to each of those teachers and staff that made an imprint on my family is overwhelming. Just as I said 2 years ago when my oldest left for middle school, there were no tears because it was all excitement, and he was so well prepared. I feel the same way now, and although bittersweet, I am blessed and can’t wait to see the amazing things Northeast continues to do. Thank you for letting me serve and volunteer in such a meaningful way for so many years. I will leave you with this…
There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And before the street begins….
We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And watch where the chalk-white arrows go….
For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
The place where the sidewalk ends.
All my best,
Laura Murphy (Luetje)
