Freshmen in Individual Career and Academic Planning take their Personal Growth Plan a step further and researched Mental Health. They explored ways to improve their healthy mindset and emotions. Students then picked a random number and when their number was called they presented their findings and information with the rest of the class. The hats were not required for their presentations - it's Homecoming Week!!!


Homecoming Week - Day 2!
Surfs Up, Get your Hawaiian Gear On for Tomorrow!

Tomorrow is the start of Homecoming week, we hope everyone will join the fun and participate in all the upcoming Homecoming activities!
Prizes will be awarded to the class that has the most participation and to the individual student with the most creative dress-up costume!

8th grade students have been working on solving linear equations and they have learned tricks and strategies to do so. They solved multi-step linear equations on paper (and on the board) to solve a puzzle and used DESMOS to complete an activity at their own pace with immediate feedback.






Third Grade is learning different ways people express themselves. So far we have learned people can express themselves through text messages and letters. Here they are learning the elements of poetry and how poetry is a way to express yourself.



October 8-14 is Fire Prevention week. We pair this with our Community Helper theme and invite JVFD to come visit. Thank you to Dakota Clark for talking to preschool about your firefighting job! Students also learned how to stop, drop and roll if their clothes catch fire and how to low crawl under the smoke to escape a space in classroom activities.










Kindergarten practiced their number writing skills by making numbers on the backs of their partners. Lots of giggles were heard! 😊




Four students from Ag Classes competed in the State Range Judging Competition in Lamar, CO. The team scored 100 more points than they did at the Regional Competition. A huge shout out to Sherri Brandt for driving.




The eighth grade U.S. History class was presenting their projects to the community on Thursday.

Right now, the Red Cross has an immediate need for blood. Our blood drive plays an important role during this time to ensure there are no delays in medical treatment for patients in need. Did you know almost 20% of blood donations come from high school and college blood drives like ours? When donors come to give blood at our blood drive, October 23 @ the Christian Church, they’ll receive an exclusive Red Cross T-shirt, while supplies last. Plus, all those who come to give blood Oct. 21-Nov. 9, 2023, will receive a $10 e-gift card. To make an appointment, call the school at 474-3364.

1st grade students practiced using our new Q-ball to share their pictures and stories! The Q-ball projects their voices through the speaker!
