Watching these 6th graders collaborate to build their solo cup towers was a great reminder that leadership starts with teamwork, communication, and trust. As part of our SD Sturdy social-emotional curriculum, this lesson on Crazy Horse helped students see how strong leaders guide with courage, unity, and respect for their people. Proud of their effort and creativity! -Mrs. Bucklin

After months of rehearsals, our students are ready to take the stage. Join us this weekend to celebrate their hard work and creativity!

Mrs. Ammann took these middle schoolers to Mitchell earlier this week for a MS Choir Festival! They did a great job, and they had a great time!

Mr. Neppl took these students outside today to get a little exercise and experience serving their community by picking up garbage around the neighborhood!

Check out this unique opportunity for middle school students just up the road in June!

Mrs. Kirchmeier's biology students again created ecosystem simulations using 2-liter bottles to explore the cycling of the essential elements of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen through biotic and abiotic components of an aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem. Students worked with a partner to design a way to connect the two ecosystems so that nutrients can cycle appropriately, and life can be sustained for a month-long period. They assembled their ecosystems in class and will collect daily observations throughout this month. At the completion of the month, students will write a report of their findings, relating their observations back to what they know about the cycling of nutrients and the interrelationships of organisms. Organisms include goldfish or minnows, regular grass, aquatic grass, bacopa, crickets, and super worms. We hope that Joe Montagua, Jerry Fish, Kelpin Gates, and Kentrell live long and happy lives.
