The 2 newly added ECFE classes have been set-up in Skyward and are available for parents to sign up!! 👏 Thanks so much to Kari and Shari for helping with this so quickly!!
The first one is Tuesday Toddler Time from 4:15-5:15pm for children ages 1-3. This class will have no separation time.

Look at all these dedicated members of the high school orchestra that came in for a rehearsal at 7:15 this morning! They are working towards a contest in Mankato on Friday, March 4th. Thanks to all the families who drove their students to school early this morning :)


Mark Hernes and Molly Bleess, co-advisors for the high school's National Honor Society (NHS), reported at last night's school board meeting that 53 junior and senior students are participating in NHS this year. Students are able to apply for NHS as sophomores if they meet the criteria for grade point average. Induction into NHS takes place in May, a time when outgoing seniors are honored, and incoming juniors are welcomed. Mark and Molly emphasized that NHS is a group which focuses on leadership, character, and service. It is not just a means for students to receive a certificate. NHS students are required to complete 12 hours of community service per semester.


To help promote February as "I Love to Read" month, guest readers are invited into classrooms. School district employee, Sarah Truesdell, read to students in Mrs. Clayon's kindergarten class. Seated next to Sarah is her daughter, Brooklyn. Brooklyn is enrolled in the Cadet Teaching class at the high school, and helping out in elementary classrooms is part of her coursework.


Katie Hoaglund, director of this year's 7th/8th grade play, along with cast members, Ella Krahmer and Ainsley Malo, attended last night's school board meeting to share information about the upcoming performance, "Never Eat a Talking Lobster." Twenty-eight students are participating in this year’s play. The students take responsibility for all aspects of the play, including serving as actors, prop designers, lights and microphone technicians, and stage crew. Play performances are scheduled for February 18 & 19, 7:00 p.m. in the PAC.
