Good morning! I wanted to provide you with an update for Monday, May 6th (Elementary Track & Field Day). We have been watching the weather forecast and it doesn’t appear that Mother Nature wants us to have our traditional Track & Field Day outdoors. Rain or shine we will have events planned for you and your child to attend and enjoy. We know and understand how many of you have marked this day on the calendar so that you can spend the day with your children.
If the weather cooperates, we will move forward with our original plan of all of the events outdoors. Your child should have brought home a schedule of their events last week. Please check their backpacks. Please see the schedule that is attached (email and social media).
If the weather forces us to be indoors, we are planning an adjusted schedule along with alternative activities that will be conducted indoors in the north and south gym on the high school side of the building. If this is the option we need to take, we will send an additional message out on Sunday evening with all of the details.
Again, rain or shine we will move forward and make it a FUN day for our Dudley students and families. I want to send a huge thank you to Mr. Mahlberg along with the SPECIALS TEAM who have been working diligently to organize this big day as well as prepare the students for all of their events.
Thank you,
Mrs. Floyd
Due to close proximity to the July 4th holiday, the July school board meeting will now be held on Monday, July 15, 2024.
Tonight we celebrated another outstanding Gothenburg High School Honors Night! For over a quarter-century, Mr. Jerry Wiggins has been the steadfast organizer of this event! But tonight, the spotlight turns to him... as we honor his invaluable contributions. With tonight marking his 26th and final Honors Night, we bid farewell with heartfelt gratitude. Thank you, Mr. Wiggins!
Tomorrow is the last day that Swede Branch Bank will be open this year. It will open @ 7:40. All of our Dudley customers are welcome for this final day to make a deposit! TELLERS (A & B) are encouraged to come to work tomorrow!
Students in 4th grade created their own covered wagon at home that could “ford a river” and hold the weight of an egg which represented the weight a covered wagon would have endured. The students did such a great job and the project really showcased their creativity!
The offseason is when Swedes put in work!

Hey Dudley Students....You will want to be ON TIME on Friday because it is "Fist Bump Friday" with the Swede Girls Track Team. We will also be lining the halls to celebrate the cast of the Gothenburg Musical (Rock of Ages)! Get ready for a FUN FRIDAY!
Our second annual Dudley Family Night, themed "A Special Night To GLOW!," was a HUGE success this evening. From beginning to end, our families engaged in a diverse range of activities, including a vibrant GLOW Dance Party, a family photo booth, board games, face painting, creating glowing kindness rocks, bracelet crafting, bookmark making, conversation starters during dinner, and a reflective "glow & grow" activity. We were honored to welcome special guests including The Burg, GECLC & The Impact Center, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Gothenburg Public Library. A heartfelt appreciation goes out to our dedicated Dudley staff who carefully planned and executed this event, creating lasting memories for our Gothenburg families. Thank you for a truly unforgettable night!
On April 12th, the Dudley Kindergarten (Class of 2036) celebrated the wedding of Q & U along with a very special spring music program.

The ceremony was attended by parents, grandparents, and friends who filled the PAC!
