Fifth graders stopped by this afternoon for the annual "Movin' On Up" visit. They learned about their lockers, the library, met some of the staff, and toured the school. It was a great afternoon with them!

Please help us sell out of candy bars! The profit from these candy bars helps the National Honor Society pay their membership dues, and the Band/Choir students pay for Honor Festivals and Contests.

Congratulations to our bowlers advancing to the STATE competition next Friday, May 9!
Individual competitors Gerrad, Bridget, and Payton will represent us alongside top bowlers from across the state. In the team event, Jacob, Phynix, John, and Bridget will compete together.
Way to go, and best of luck at State!





Our AcaDec team is competing nationally in Des Moines, IA this week! They took a few moments to pose in front of the Des Moines River just outside their hotel yesterday after they arrived, then posed again this morning at the opening ceremony. Competition began this afternoon with the speech portion and continues tomorrow with the "Super Quiz."



Good luck to our bowlers today who are competing at regionals!!

The district has been closely monitoring the weather and Superintendent Benson attended a webinar earlier today regarding the severe weather that's expected for later today. It appears that we could experience some challenging weather between the 4-7pm time frame. We are aware that other districts are opting for early dismissals. At this point, we will remain in school, but there will be no after-school activities today.
The bus companies and our staff will prioritize getting everyone home safely once the school day ends.


These six students are participating at STATE SPEECH today! They are currently waiting for finals and will know placements later this evening. We will update you as soon as we know more!!


While the juniors were testing this morning, the 9th graders visited the SPAM Museum and the Hormel Nature Center.
