If you plan to sign your child out early, please check in directly with your child’s teacher after the parade.
We can’t wait to see all the creative costumes and have a spooktacular afternoon together! 🧙♀️🕸️🍬
At North Mercer, we know that a nutritious breakfast sets the tone for a great day of learning! 💪

Eat well and start your day strong! ❤️ #NorthMercerCardinals #HealthyStart #FuelForLearning

We’re so proud of their hard work and positive attitudes — they really "maize" us proud every day! 🌟
A big THANK YOU to our parents for partnering with us — your support in getting students to school and encouraging their academics helps them grow and thrive. 🌾💛
It was definitely a “corn-tastic” way to celebrate success! 🌽👏

🌟 We’re so thankful for our custodians! 🌟
Last week was National Custodian Day, and we want to take a moment to recognize and celebrate the incredible members of our custodial team! 🧹✨
They work hard every single day to keep our classrooms clean, our hallways safe, and our school looking its best. Their dedication behind the scenes makes a huge difference for our students, staff, and community — and we couldn’t do it without them! 💪❤️
Our 5th grade class helped us celebrate by making a special card for each of our custodians. Even though we only got a picture below with Mrs. Jamie, we are so thankful for Richard and Martin too!
Thank you all for everything you do to keep North Mercer shining! 🙌🐾

We are proud to announce the arrival of our first brand-new bus since moving to a district-owned fleet in 2017! 🎉
A huge thank you goes out to the North Mercer Board of Education, Wade Hall, Rick Kreutz, Midwest Bus Sales, and our tax-paying citizens for making this possible. Student safety is always our top priority, and with Thomas’ reputation for safety, service, and reliability, staying with diesel power was an easy choice.
Transportation Director Kerri Jincks had the honor of handing the keys of the new 2026 Thomas C-2 to one of our outstanding professional drivers, Max Siemer, who will be driving it on Route #3. 🚦
👏 We’re grateful for our Transportation Department, our professional drivers, and the continued support of our school community. This new bus represents another step forward in keeping our students safe every day!
