WES 4th graders became entrepreneurs this week! They created their own stores and products, learned about supply and demand to set prices, and even shopped as consumers in their classmates’ stores. A hands-on lesson in economics and creativity! #19WESPride #19EveryStudent

Recently Mrs.Houk & Mrs. Harper's classes at Wingate had a fun time picking the perfect pumpkin! #19EveryStudent #19WESPride

Our 4th graders at Wingate put their multiplication skills to work by creating and playing their own board games! A fun and engaging way to reinforce math facts and spark creativity. #19EveryStudent #19WESPride

Mascoutah Community Unit School District 19 is featured as one of "The 10 Most Admired School Districts" in October's issue of The Education Magazine. Their article about MSD19 says,

"....In places where tradition meets growth, the story of a district is rarely a straight line. Instead, it becomes a reflection of both heritage and progress, carried forward by the people who call that community home.

"Mascoutah is one such place. Tucked in the heart of Illinois, it carries the character of a small rural town while sitting close to expanding suburban neighborhoods. Adding to this mix is the presence of Scott Air Force Base, which brings with it families from across the country and even the world. This blend of hometown roots, suburban energy, and global influence has shaped the Mascoutah community.... Over time, that character has given the local school district both challenges and opportunities unlike any other."
