FFA students from the secondary school set up a petting zoo for elementary students today. Students really enjoyed seeing and petting the animals today and learning a little about farm life.
It was the perfect day for the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade track and field meet!!
Thank you, Katie Fahey, with Federated Insurance, for a successful Junior Achievement experience!

Western Governors University was holding its "Fund my Classroom" initiative again across four states. This was the first time teachers in Minnesota could submit their ideas for consideration. Jenna completed an application stating where the funds would be used and how it would impact students and was awarded a $1,020 grant this past Friday. Funds for her project will go towards 93 new books for our school that go along with our new reading curriculum. Books will help students to further their interests in topics of study or bring more of the new knowledge to life.
This morning the PTO pulled off another successful Morning with Moms, serving 820 donuts! Thank you to everyone for your help today!!!
