Small Engines has been a huge hit in Mrs. Galloway’s Ag Power class! Students are currently dismantling a Briggs & Stratton engine and will soon put their skills to the test by reassembling it. We love seeing hands-on learning that builds real-world skills and keeps our students engaged and problem-solving every day.



Congratulations to Attica swimmer George Harrison for breaking the junior high records in both the 100 backstroke and 50 fly! He’s now less than four seconds away from challenging the high school records — an incredible achievement and a testament to his hard work and dedication in the pool.

Congratulations to Keleigh Moore and Rebecca Anderson for their outstanding performance at the IMEA Area 3 Circle the State With Song Festival in Crawfordsville. They represented Attica with pride, talent, and professionalism — we are incredibly proud of the way they continue to showcase the excellence of our music program!


The Attica JH Swim & Dive team had a strong showing last night, finishing 2nd in their Co-Ed meet against Fountain Central and North Vermillion. Our student-athletes continue to demonstrate great effort, teamwork, and growth as the season progresses. We are proud of the way they represent Attica both in and out of the pool!

A big thank you to Missy Vandewater, our cheerleaders, and our Spirit Lifters for the energy and dedication they bring to making our school events special. Their hard work behind the scenes and on the sidelines plays a huge role in building school pride and creating a positive atmosphere for our students and community. We wish them the very best as they prepare for the Cheer Showcase at Seeger next Wednesday, 2/25/26.

Students in Ms. Phillippo’s class put their communication skills to the test with a fun and challenging activity focused on clear directions and careful listening. Without being able to say what the picture was or show the image, one student had to guide another step-by-step through drawing it. The lesson encouraged students to adjust their approach, think creatively, and strengthen how they communicate with one another.

This STEAM Saturday, students used math and engineering to build 3-d puzzle pieces. With a bit of trial and error, they used their pieces to create a heart for Valentine’s Day. Working collaboratively, students rotated, flipped, and reconfigured their creations, applying problem-solving strategies and persistence to turn structured forms into creativity!








4th grade field trip to the Lafayette Symphony Orchestra’s “Symphony On the Go”. They got to hear Stravinsky’s “Firebird” in addition to part of his
“Pulcinella” and “Tarantella”. The orchestra also treated them to a live performance of John Williams’ “Jurassic Park”. Some of the students even had their story illustrations displayed on the screen during the concert!

We are so excited to announce:
The Attica Community Foundation has awarded a $7,500 grant to Attica Elementary School to support the installation of a Book Vending Machine for students in kindergarten through fifth grade.

We are proud to support this creative initiative and help encourage reading while increasing students’ access to books! 📚❤️
