Prom is this weekend! Here is the timeline of events for Saturday. We are excited to host our first Prom in our new building and look forward to a memorable evening together!
Elizabeth Albert-Peacock and Thomas Peacock, from Black Bears and Blueberries, an Indigenous publishing company, held a writers workshop for Mrs. Noonan's and Mr. Grunenwald's 7th and 8th grade classes yesterday. Thomas and Elizabeth shared some of the stories they have written and published, and also helped students come up with their own ideas for stories to write.
Mrs. Furey and Mrs. Anderson took 5th grade on the 5-day STARBASE field trip at the end of April. The STARBASE program strengthens skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics while promoting problem-solving, collaboration, and real-world application. Students used CAD, learned coding, engineered rocket landings, researched various STEM careers, and more! The lessons were all aligned with the Minnesota state standards in math, science, and English. Thank you to our parent chaperones, Tim Hegstrom, Ashley Marinaro, Amy Forness, and Jason Forness. Also, thank you to our bus drivers/chaperones, Nicole Houle, Camelia Paszak, and April Matson. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UKXryq76GGpwa8sjaX1joBDcEDVc5NTE/view?usp=sharing

7th grade Social Studies students in Ms. Whitney's class have been studying American government! Students worked in teams to create their own Constitutions, demonstrating their knowledge of the 7 principles and the 3 branches of government.
As part of our Sports and Entertainment Marketing class we spent part of March focusing on different activities around "March Madness". We created a large NCAA March Madness Bracket and students made Pennants as teams advanced throughout the tournament. One of our projects was to choose a player who was playing in the tournament and create a Wheaties Box with them on the cover. Students learned about the marketing concepts behind the Wheaties Box and how special it is for athletes to be featured on the box. Students also learned about how brands use events such as "March Madness" to have special promotions in an attempt to increase profits.
Anatomy & Physiology students enjoyed the weather last week and worked on their skeletal system case study in our outdoor space.
Reminder..... Summer Learning Academy registration is closing May 1st! Sign up for a summer of fun learning experiences. We are excited to explore the nature surrounding our new school as well as the bike trail! Register at getlearning.org or ask your child's teacher for a form!

Great things happen when educators keep learning!
This week, our teachers are at the Minnesota Conference for Teachers of Mathematics to sharpen their skills, discover innovative strategies, and bring fresh ideas back to the classroom. Every new insight gained means more engaging lessons, stronger problem-solving skills, and greater opportunities for our students to succeed.
When teachers grow, students thrive. We can’t wait to see the impact of this learning in action!

Ken Strukel, math instructor from Minnesota North, Hibbing , visited Mrs. Riipinen's Intro to Coding class to see what her students have been learning. As a former computer science instructor, he was impressed with the skills the students have learned. We then visited Mrs. Furey's engineering class to help them debug their robot programs. Thank you Ken for sharing your knowledge.
First grade had the best Earth Day! 🌎 We decorated pots, filled them with soil, planted seeds, and gave them a good watering. Now we get to watch them grow. We even soaked up some sunshine while celebrating our beautiful Earth. 🌱☀️
