"We are the first generation to raise digital natives — kids who’d rather text than talk. And, let’s be honest, it’s hard. In fact, surveys reveal that technology is the number one battleground in homes today. Screens have seeped into every corner of our kids’ lives, and many of us are trying to navigate this unpaved parenthood road alone.
That’s where we come in. Screen Sanity is an international nonprofit that equips parents to be mentors and guides so kids grow up happy and healthy in an increasingly digital world. We offer a variety of tips, tools and trainings, all designed to help families maximize the benefits of technology while minimizing the harmful side effects. Join us in creating a world where kids are captivated by life, not screens." - ScreenSanity.org
We kickoff 2025 Alumni Spotlights by honoring the newly retired, Dave Davis!

It's a season of lights and that's exactly what you'd find in Mrs. Kira VanWinkle's the last week or so. Her 8th Grade students were challenged to create and light 3 buildings using a different type of circuit for each building. What a fun demonstration of learning before winter break!
Happy Holidays from the Mustang family to yours! We wish you a joyful winter break with a chance to rest and relax. Can you guess who is who from our district leadership team!?
We spotlight Jeremy White this week! He is now a professor at Iowa State University.
We just wanted to remind you about sharing your input about desired skills and characteristics for our next Davis County / Moulton-Udell CSDs Shared Superintendent. We have contracted with Grundmeyer Leader Services to assist us with the search; step one of the process is to elicit input from district patrons via a Stakeholder Survey. If you have not yet done so, please complete the survey as soon as possible. If you already have completed the survey, thank you (complete it only once per person). Enclosed is a flyer about the Stakeholder Survey, as well as the link to the actual survey. If you prefer, the direct link to the survey is below; the survey closes December 20. Thank you for providing input to the Boards of Education in moving forward with this most important hire.
