Our 7th and 8th grade music students performed in the Minot Auditorium today at the 26th annual
“Salute to Seniors-Country Hoedown” event. Thank you, Mrs. Wahl and Mrs. Brianna, for taking them.
Our K-12 Awards Day programs were a success today! Our students were recognized for their academic
achievements, extra curricular and co-curricular participation, and more! It’s always wonderful to
celebrate our amazing students! And our teachers put on quite the show!
6th graders received first hand insights from upperclassmen on “6th Grade Shadow Day.” They met
their new teachers, traveled from class to class, ate lunch with their student mentors, and learned about
activities, schedules, and rules!
Our K–12 students have answered an impressive 139,325 IXL questions! Thank you to our teachers for
using this supplemental program to help boost math and language arts skills, and for continually enriching
their students’ learning experiences. The monthly drawings have been a hit!
No piece of trash is too small. Our “Belated Earth Day Clean Up” is tomorrow, weather permitting, for
all K-11 students, teachers, and staff. We will clean up our field, parking lot, and playground. Thank you
in advance for the popsicles, Honor Society.
