Congratulations to our Speech team for an incredible showing at Sections! Mara Bestge (1st - Inform) and Addison Lynde (1st - Dramatic Interp) are both advancing to State next weekend. We also celebrate Jadelyn Hjelmstad (5th) and Haley Sandland (7th) for their hard work and great performances.
Our students also traveled to the career fair in Mahnomen, where they explored various career paths and participated in hands-on activities like mock surgery.
Finally, we want to recognize our PBIS Winners from the last two weeks: Korah Crabtree, Madeline Huseby, Camden Kleven, Jaston Schlauderaff, Courtney Francis, Grant Francis, and Arya Morton.
Good luck at State, Raiders!
Throughout April & May we will be posting all senior spotlights to highlight our graduating class. Please join us in congratulating their accomplishment!
In Biology, students participated in the Battle of the Beaks, an activity where they tested different beak designs to see how they competed for various food sources. It’s always a favorite way to see foraging skills in action.
Meanwhile, STEAM students have been busy with laser engraving and 3D printing. One highlight is Tate’s recent project: he took a cutting board he built in woods class last semester and added a beautiful laser-engraved highland cow design to it.
Great work to all the students involved in these creative projects. We hope everyone has an amazing long weekend and Easter!

A huge congratulations goes out to our Business Professionals of American group for their outstanding performance at the State competition! Many of our individuals and groups excel in BPA.
PAY (Philanthropy and Youth) also gave their Boardroom Presentation at NDSU, and were able to donate $6,000 to local nonprofits. Nice work!
Finally, a studio got to play an Ojibwe matching game!
Have a safe a relaxing Spring Break!
