Our 1st graders had a gourd time at Grandma’s Pumpkin Patch today! 🎃 From fall fun to making memories with friends, it was a perfect day for our little Huskies to enjoy the magic of the season! We’re thankful for opportunities like these that make learning outside the classroom so special!

Take a peek at some of the fun from their pumpkin patch adventure!

There’s nothing quite like the sight of Huskies settling in with a good book! 📖 Today, students across K.C. Ling took some time to slow down, get comfortable, and enjoy the magic of reading during Free Reading Friday.

From cozy corners to classroom nooks, our halls were filled with little readers getting lost in stories, exploring new worlds, and building a lifelong love of books.

Keep turning those pages, Huskies! 🐾

🐾 THE LING LINE-UP | PRINCIPALS MONTH EDITION 🐾

This week, we're shining the spotlight on the leader of our Huskie pack, Mr. Snider!

With 19 years in education, including two years at K.C. Ling, Mr. Snider brings a wealth of experience, a passion for helping students grow, and a strong belief in the power of relationships. Before stepping into school leadership, he spent 13 years in the classroom teaching history and English and then moved on to become an athletic director and principal. His inspiration? A high school history teacher and coach who made a lasting impact on students, along with his grandpa, a longtime principal who showed him what it means to make meaningful connections.

Ask Mr. Snider what his favorite part of working at Ling is, and his answer is simple: the people! He loves being part of a welcoming school community where staff support one another and put students and families first. To him, being a Huskie means going the extra mile, leading by example, and always looking for ways to get better.

When he's not busy leading our school, you might find him golfing, enjoying sporting events, listening to '90s and 2000s rap, or spending time with his wife, Dani, and their two daughters, Lenni and Rori. He's a Michigan sports fan (Go Blue! 💛💙), a history lover, a beef jerky fan, and a man who runs on coffee and Diet Coke. Just don't offer him ice cream… apparently, that's a pass!

Perhaps our favorite response was the advice he'd give our students: “You bring value to our world just by being you.”

Mr. Snider, thank you for the leadership, encouragement, and heart you bring to K.C. Ling Elementary. We're grateful to have you leading our Huskie pack and helping our students, staff, and families thrive!

Help us celebrate Mr. Snider during Principals Month by leaving him a little appreciation in the comments!

Nurse Becky and Mr. Earle had some exciting new gym equipment to share with our 3rd graders during gym class! This equipment was earned through our participation in last school year’s Kids Heart Challenge! ❤️

We’re so proud of our Huskies for taking part in a program that promotes heart health, kindness, and helping others. It’s even better when those efforts bring new opportunities to get moving, stay active, and have fun! 💪

A BIG thank-you to everyone who helped make the Kids Heart Challenge a success! Our Huskies’ hard work is paying off in more ways than one!

Our first grade friends in Mrs. Siler’s class took their learning outside! 🍂🍁

They went on a leaf hunt to find the perfect leaves for a fun leaf rubbing and poetry project. From exploring nature to turning their finds into beautiful words, these Huskies are proving that learning can happen everywhere! 📚

We love seeing their creativity—and all those proud little smiles!

We’re excited to share a few pictures from the kick-off of our fall tutoring sessions, which began this week! Our students are putting in the extra effort, building skills, growing their confidence, and working toward success. 💙

A special thank you to Mrs. Langworthy for organizing these sessions and making these opportunities possible for our students. We are also incredibly grateful for our amazing teachers and paraprofessionals who give their time, energy, and encouragement to continue molding these young Huskies and helping set them up for success.

It truly takes a team, and we are so proud of the team surrounding our students!

Keep learning. Keep growing. Keep believing. We’ve got this, Huskies!
