Mrs. Nagel’s class enjoyed their 5th Grade Buddy time with Mrs. Anderson’s Class! They read their just-right books, their Bookworm stories (curriculum), and various picture books! It was nice to see their reading growth, fluency, and smiles. 📚🙌🏻
🇺🇸 Mr. Podoll’s 8th graders visited the elementary school to help Mrs. Podoll’s 1st graders write letters to our veterans!
The letters will be delivered to the VA hospital and area nursing homes to show our veterans how much they are appreciated. Students with parents who have served even had the special opportunity to write letters directly to them. ❤️
We are proud of our students for taking the time to honor and thank those who have served our country!
Thank you, veterans! 🇺🇸
Our Annual Community Veteran's Day Program is this afternoon at the HEC. The program will begin at 2:00. All are welcome to join us and honor those who have served our country.

🩺 Exploring Careers in Healthcare! 🩺
Our ninth grade students had a great opportunity yesterday to attend Scrubs Camp at Sanford Medical Center in Hillsboro!
Students explored a variety of careers in the medical field, learned from healthcare professionals, and participated in hands-on activities that gave them a closer look at the many opportunities available in healthcare.
We are incredibly thankful to Sanford Medical Center for providing this experience and for their continued partnership in creating meaningful learning opportunities for our students!
It was a great day of learning, exploring, and discovering future possibilities! Thank you, Sanford! 💙
First grade celebrated Halloween with a lot of math activities and pumpkins! They estimated, predicted, measured, counted by 10’s, and got messy! Stevie even roasted the seeds for them and students got to try some fun flavors, salt - ranch - dill pickle. 🎃
The kindergarten classes had so much visiting the new Hillsboro Fire and Rescue! We were excited to be one of the first visitors. A special thanks to Fire Chief Rust for the fun tour! 🚒🚑
🎓 Exploring Future Opportunities! 🚀
Yesterday, our sophomores attended the Northern Valley Career Expo at the Alerus Center!
Students had the opportunity to sit in on a couple of sessions to learn more about different career paths and explore future possibilities. They also visited with a variety of companies and universities to learn about the opportunities available to them after high school.
Experiences like these help students explore their interests, discover new possibilities, and begin thinking about their futures! We are proud of our sophomores for taking advantage of this opportunity to learn and grow! 💙

➕ Our 5th graders participated in the October Math Jam! Math Jam is a Jeopardy-style math game where students work together as a team, answer challenging math questions, and earn points. They put their math skills, teamwork, and problem-solving abilities to the test while competing against classrooms from across the United States! Way to go, 5th grade! 🧠🎉
🧪 What state of matter is oobleck? Our 5th graders have been learning about the phases of matter and got hands-on by making their own oobleck! They explored its unique properties and investigated whether it behaves like a solid or a liquid. Science is even more fun when you get to get messy and experiment! 🔬

5th grade is currently reading books about plant and animal cells. Since our book discussed microscopes, students had the opportunity to examine different fibers under microscopes in class. They learned how to properly focus the microscopes and were able to observe the unique structures of the fibers.
Mr. Strand and Ms. McKinnon’s 4th grade classes went to Marketplace for Kids at Mayville State University! They learned so much! Vet 101, Aviation, Money, Nursing, and more! ✈️🩺🚒
🍂 Mrs. Podoll’s first graders went on a leaf hunt! They read Why Do Leaves Change Colors? and learned how shorter days and cooler temperatures cause trees to stop making as much chlorophyll, the pigment that makes leaves green. As the green fades, other pigments are revealed, showing off the beautiful reds, oranges, and yellows
We love seeing learning come to life through real-world experiences and watching our students’ curiosity and wonder grow! ❤️🧡💛
Mrs. Wright’s Kindergarteners and Ms. McKinnon’s 4th Graders had a spook-tacular time creating skeletons last week! 🎃
Please reach out to the school if you're interested in becoming a substitute teacher!
The first grade classes celebrated making their reading goal with a walk to Sundae Brew. They read, “If You Give a Dog a Donut”, while eating donuts and juice! A giant “thank you” to Sundae Brew for inviting them in and to the Burro Village FTO for making the funds happen!
