3rd Annual Color Run.  May 15th at 3:00 PM (School dismissed at 2:30 to support this run.)  Students and families are encouraged to take part in this 1.6 mile route.  The run will cost $15 per runner/walker which includes the registration and the t-shirt.  (Scholarships are available if you’re unable to afford the cost of entry.)  Registration will close on April 12.  If you choose, you may just show up for the run, entry fee on the day of the event will be only $5, but there will be NO t-shirt there for you.  If you have any questions, please contact Reuben at reuben.clay@k12.nd.us

PROM SIGN UP TIME: Dance the night away to Fishing in the Dark, Prom 2024. Sign up for prom in the office until April 5th. Single ticket for juniors or seniors ONLY is $15 and $25 for a couple. All out of town guests must get a form from Tammie to be filled out and returned to Mr. Nygaard. Both you and your date must meet eligibility rules to attend the prom.

AFTER PROM: Party from Midnight to 2:00 AM after the prom. This is open to ALL 9-12 grade students, or student plus their date, from North Star School or Starkweather School. There is no cost to attend this party, and you do NOT have to attend the prom to go. Parents are called if a student leaves before 2:00 AM.  Come in to the office and sign up for this event.

Seniors, as your letters of acceptance come in, bring those to the office, so we can have a copy of them.  We’re planning a tribute wall to you, and we want to display your excitement of being accepted into the college of your choice!
