It was all about shadows in Mrs. Hansen's preschool class today! We started our investigation indoors, then took the fun outside for an exciting game of "shadow tag." We explored letter shadows and tried to identify animals by their shadow shape. The kids had a fantastic time learning while playing!
Today in science class, our third graders got hands-on with friction by playing table hockey! 🏒💨 They discovered how different surfaces affect the way a hockey puck glides. It was amazing to see their observations and excitement!
Eight Freshmen Ag students attended the BIG Conference at NJC. They learned all of the aspects of FFA, everything they can expect on their years as FFA members and had a little fun doing it.
Earlier this week 24 FFA member competed in the Regional Range Judging competition in New Raymer. The students surveyed and evaluated 2 ecological sites to determine their stocking rate and have to identify 30 plants. We had 3 students place in the Bronze Category. Cooper Edson, Josh Palic, and Noah Harens received those honors as well as being the high 3 placers who determined our team score. The team finished 9th overall. We had several students that were really close to receiving awards. Now it on to the State Competition in October.

Today was an exciting day in Pre-K! We found a cicada during recess and couldn't resist diving into videos to learn more about them. The kids loved discovering the different sounds cicadas make!
Inspiring creativity in the classroom! Our third graders have begun drafting personal narratives by honing in on one small moment. They first rehearsed their stories by sharing with partners, fostering collaboration and communication skills
“Learning can be so much fun when you use your head—literally! 🎈✏️ Watch these kids practice their spelling by hitting a balloon into the air while saying each letter aloud. It’s a great way to stay active and sharp at the same time. Who knew spelling could be this exciting? 🙌 #FunLearning #SpellingChallenge #ActiveMinds”
First and Second grade are learning about facts and opinions. We played a fun game where students would listen to a statement. They would then choose if the statement was a fact or an opinion. Based on their answer, they would complete the appropriate exercise.

🚨 Attention Parents and Students! 🚨
Missing school here and there may seem harmless, but it adds up quickly! If a student misses just 2 days a month, they lose 20 days of school in a year—that's nearly 60 hours of essential learning in Math, Science, Social Studies, and English! Over their K-12 journey, that's equivalent to 1.5 academic years! 😲
What strategies do you use to ensure you or your child attends school regularly? Share below! 👇 #AttendanceMatters #EveryDayCounts
4th graders are learning about fractions. Here they are matching fractions with the picture that represents that fraction.
Carlie Brandt working on her Vet Science course. As animals play an increasingly important role in our lives, scientists have sought to learn more about their health and well-being. Taking a look at the pets that live in our homes, on our farms, and in zoos and wildlife sanctuaries, this course examines some of the common diseases and treatments for domestic animals. Toxins, parasites, and infectious diseases affect not only the animals around us, but at times, us humans as well! Through veterinary medicine and science, the prevention and treatment of diseases and health issues are studied and applied.
