Happy Halloween from the 7-12 students & staff! 🎃
Elementary teachers took part in a team building activity last Wednesday. Teacher teams worked on decorating a pumpkin to be voted on by the elementary students.
The results are in and pumpkin number two, Pikachu, was the winner!
Thank you to The Mighty Elk for sponsoring the prize for the teacher team made up of Mrs. Delaney, Mrs. Jensen, Mrs. Anderson, and Mrs. Kylie Erickson. Thank you to all of our teachers for their awesome creativity and for inspiring our students!

Happy Halloween (tomorrow)! 🎃 Students in grades 7-12 are allowed to wear school-appropriate costumes, but face paint is not allowed.

We asked that there be no face paint or weapon replicas brought to school. The PTO will be leading games in the gym for our students and teachers have sent out information on their class parties.
