Grade 8 Computer students are using Microsoft Makecode to program Lego EV3 robots. They also use Makecode in the computer lab to automate tasks and control virtual robots in Minecraft.

Sophomores had a blast this Friday learning about DNA and using our Tower Garden! We did a lab that showed us the DNA of a Strawberry while enjoying some shakes made with kale that they grew.




Check out our new Tower Gardens! We were lucky enough to get three of them for the school. Very thankful to First State Bank of Cando, Cando Home and Hardware, First State Insurance, Premier Financial, Legacy Co-op, 281 Gun and Tackle, and the Cando Connection Fund for their generous donations.
