Now that we are more than a month into the school year, and everyone should be in a routine, we want to remind parents about our procedures. If a parent needs to come into the school for any reason, they should be calling ahead of time to let the school know. In the morning students know where they are going by now, so it is fine to walk your child to the door but let them go from that point. If a parent would like to talk to a teacher, please call to set up a time to do so. We have not allowed parents to eat breakfast or lunch with their child the last couple years because of Covid, however we will allow that to happen this year, but again we need a call ahead of time, so we know what is going on. All these procedures are for the safety of everyone involved.
Also, as our weather is beginning to change to cooler temperatures please remember to send your child dressed properly to be outside for recess.
If you have any questions or concerns, contact the school. Thank you.

8th Graders learned about the Fur Trade in North Dakota. Then they played a game with dice to get the items they need to make trades.
