Summer lunch for kids!


Today was our last Student of the Month field trip for the year! We went mini golfing at Greens on Foreteenth and enjoyed the nice weather at Olcott park.
Thank you Spartan Booster Club for funding this fun experience for our students.








High School Zoology classes had the opportunity to participate in a behind the scenes tour of the Great Lakes Aquarium on Tuesday. This experience allowed them to apply their knowledge of animals to species that the aquarium exhibits. They also learned how the aquarium monitors the health of the animals, feeds them, keeps the water clean, and monitors animal reproduction. Thank you Spartan Booster Club for funding this trip and supporting our students educational journey!!











Third graders had a fun time at the Great Lakes Aquarium today! They got to learn all about the life cycle of a sturgeon and explore aquarium life. Thank you Spartan Booster Club for funding this field trip for our students.











Student's from the Ojibwe 5th hour class made fry bread. They made enough for the other Ojibwe classes
, students and staff.
