North Star is taking the opportunity to celebrate the 2026 Olympics and learn about different cultures. Monday morning the staff and students participated in an opening ceremony complete with a torch. Each student, K-12, is assigned to a teacher and a country. Throughout the week they will be working on researching and developing artifacts for their room. Friday, students will rotate from room to room learning more about the selected countries. The opening ceremony was live-streamed on North Star Bearcats Booster Club’s Facebook page if you’d like to go back and watch. Thanks to all involved in our week including the NS school board, TCMC staff, Bravera Bank, First State Bank, First United Bank Hal Parker Post #79, and North Star Bearcats Booster Club.
