Flaherty Elementary School

Get ready to show your school spirit and celebrate the season with our holiday dress-up days next week! Each day will feature a different theme to spread cheer and make our hallways sparkle with fun.

We can’t wait to see all the creativity and festive outfits from our amazing students!

We are excited to share that our school will be heading to Crowne Pointe Theatres to see Zootopia 2 on Wednesday, December 17! This special field trip is FREE for all students as we celebrate their hard work and successes so far this school year!

Permission slips will be coming home soon. Please be sure to sign and return the form with your student. Students without a signed permission slip will not be able to attend.

We can’t wait to enjoy this fun day together!

We will be administering MAP tests on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. It’s important that students are present and on time each day so they can do their very best!

These assessments help us measure student growth and achievement throughout the year. We appreciate your support in encouraging students to get a good night’s rest, eat a healthy breakfast, and come to school ready to shine!

Let’s show what our Flaherty students know!

Because of the inclement weather last week, Scholastic has agreed to extend our book fair through this Thursday! Students may shop during breakfast, recess, or specials. Flaherty loves the Scholastic book fair!

What an incredible night! Thank you to all the families who joined us for Flaherty’s Festival of Trees. Your support, smiles, and holiday spirit helped make the evening truly magical.

Our students shined on stage with their Christmas music performances, and seeing our community come together made the night extra special.

We collected over 1,000 food items going right back to our community!

Thank you for celebrating with us — we are grateful for each and every one of you!
Happy Holidays from all of us at Flaherty Elementary!

Join us for a magical evening as our halls come alive with beautifully decorated Christmas trees and festive music performances by our talented students throughout the night!

Yesterday, our Flaherty 4th graders enjoyed a magical field trip to the Hardin County Performing Arts Center to see Cinderella! A huge thank-you to the Hardin County PAC staff and performers for giving our students such a memorable experience—and to our amazing teachers and chaperones for making the trip possible! What a wonderful day of arts, imagination, and fun!

Help us spread kindness this holiday season! Our Family Resource Center is collecting nonperishable food items to support local families, and we’d love your help.

You can send donations directly to school December 2–9, or bring your items to Flaherty’s Festival of Trees on December 4 and use them to vote for your favorite class Christmas tree!

Every can, box, and bag makes a difference. Thank you for helping us show what the Flaherty family spirit is all about!

Thank you so much for supporting our students and staff during the Krispy Kreme fundraiser! All orders will be ready to pick up on Tuesday, November 25th. If a student has more than 2 boxes of donuts, the order must be picked up at school between 12-3pm. Please call the front office if you have any questions about your order.

Our classrooms were buzzing with creativity this week! One group of students brought The Best Halloween Ever to life by painting story-themed pumpkins, each one as unique and imaginative as the book itself! Meanwhile, another class teamed up for collaborative presentations exploring the History of Thanksgiving. Students researched, discussed, and created together to share what they’ve learned about this important American tradition. We love seeing hands-on learning and teamwork shine across our school!

We’re excited to kick off a brand-new holiday tradition at Flaherty! Join us on December 4th for a festive evening filled with music, community, and Christmas cheer. Enjoy special student music performances, shop at our Scholastic Book Fair, and take part in a meaningful community service project—all while enjoying a free chili dinner with your family.

Each class has decorated its very own Christmas tree, and you get to help choose the winners! Bring non-perishable food items to donate to our Food Drive—each item counts as one vote for your favorite tree. The more items you bring, the more votes you cast!

Come celebrate the season with us as we spread joy, give back, and enjoy time together as a school family!

Our next Map tests are coming up in December. These tests are important to our students' academic journey as they show growth and achievement. Please partner with us in making sure students are present and ready for these tests.

Tomorrow is Domino's Pizza Day! Feel free to send cash or check with your student for an additional piece of delicious pizza for only $2!

Today we had the honor of welcoming local veterans to our school for a special luncheon with their Flaherty Blue Devils. Our students also performed a patriotic song to show their appreciation. It was such a meaningful experience and a wonderful way to thank the brave men and women who have served our country.

Join us as we show our united support for the brave men and women who have served our country! Students and staff are encouraged to wear red or blue on Tuesday, November 11, to show gratitude and appreciation for our veterans. Let’s come together to honor their courage and dedication!
