Attention parents of high school students, including incoming freshman for Fall 2025, we invite you to an informational session about our Advanced Placement and Dual Credit classes.

You'll meet the teachers and hear about prerequisites for AP classes as well as CTE offferings- March 26, 6 PM in the High School Library.
Are you coming to the Budget Meeting this Wednesday at 4 pm to learn more about the school district's finances? Feel free to stay and come to the PAC meeting right after! The meeting starts at 6 pm and will be in the MS/HS Library.
Please check your student's pencil stash. It is the time of year when pencils are in short supply. The quality of said pencils is also questionable, at best. We repeat . . . check your student's pencil supply, or better yet, simply assume the supply needs replenishing and buy them pencils enough to make it through the rest of the year. They will thank you. Their teachers will thank you. Your students friends and classmates will thank you, particularly that one classmate who has been keeping your students all in pencils because they have managed their stash efficiently.

Yesterday the middle and high school sent the basketball teams off to tournament season and recognized our wrestlers and speech and drama team with a pep assembly. The cheerleaders performed their halftime dance (world premier!) followed by some advice from the wrestlers and the speech and drama team for tournament success. The girls basketball team beat the wrestlers in a half-court shot contest 6-4. And the boys basketball team out-dunked the cheerleading team, though just barely. The final event was the tug-of-war, which is much more fun when the rope doesn't break. Congratulations to the senior class on their win! However, the freshman are a force to be reckoned with and have a bright tug-of-war future. Good luck to the basketball teams! Go Wolves!
THANK YOU to our celebrity judges who too time out of their day to judge the dunk contest! The Grinch (Matt Bugland), Deputy Deville (Deputy Dan Mayland), and Lady Gaga (McKenzie Woodland, whose son didn't know who it was until someone told him). And thank you to Mr. Grinch for also entertaining the elementary students during their lunch. You all made it even more fun.
February may be a short month, but we have a long list of high school students who did outstanding work this month and were recognized by their teachers. Here are our February Students of the Month for the high school!
