Congratulations to our softball team for advancing to the state tournament that will be held next week, beginning Tuesday!!

As we have in the past when our teams compete at the state level, we encourage our students, staff, and community members to show their support. To accommodate those attending, there will be an early dismissal on Tuesday, June 2nd.

Elementary will dismiss at 12:30 PM
Secondary will dismiss at 12:40 PM

In addition, due to the uncertainty surrounding tournament scheduling and outcome of the game, the last day of school will now be Tuesday, June 2. This adjustment will help provide greater consistency and allow families and staff to plan accordingly. We understand this change may create challenges for some families and appreciate your flexibility and understanding. By communicating this information as early as possible, we hope it provides time to make any necessary arrangements.

Please visit the school webpage at https://www.isd2071.k12.mn.us/page/state-softball for additional information. This page will be updated as information is available.

Again, we appreciate your flexibility this week and GO KNIGHTS!!

Secondary students and staff were treated to a Lunch Luau today! Amber and her team did a phenomenal job planning the fun day! Students could choose from Hawaiian Roasted Pork Loin, Huli Huli Chicken Thighs, or a Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Wrap and everyone was able to have some roasted pork from the pig that was slow roasted overnight last night. Sides that were served along with the main protein included island style fried rice, Pog juice (hawaiian fruit juice), macaroni salad, pineapple upside down cake, tropical fruit & veggie bar. Middle school and high school student council members helped serve some of the items and handed out Hawaiian leis to everyone.

Thank you to Lantz Enterprises and Full Scope Contracting for the donation for the hog and processing!

And a huge thank you to Amber for coming up with this awesome idea!
