On Saturday evening, volunteers from the High School Choir performed at the St Paul Christmas Market. Great job!

Thank you to the Wood & Huston Bank for sponsoring a trip to the Lyceum for our 7th & 8th grade students. On Friday, students enjoyed watching the production "A Christmas Carol". Thank you to the Lyceum Theater in Arrow Rock for a fantastic performance.


Upon returning from Christmas Break we will have a couple activities that will occur very quickly:
Courtwarming: Friday, January 24, 2025
Jam the Gym: Tuesday, February 4, 2025
Because these two dates are so close together, we want our fans to have the option to buy one or the other, or BOTH!
Store closes January 12, 2025

This week's events! Finish 2024 with GRIT!

Very proud JH students show off the bags they made using a sewing machine. These bags were lined, with a zipper and small strap. They all turned out really cute and the students did a great job! They put forth a good effort and showed great patience as they waited their turn. Thank you Debbie Reinitz for helping out! For most of the kids, this was their first experience with a sewing machine. They learned a great life skill!










JH students were excited to learn about the sewing machine and get to create a small zippered bag. Debbie Reinitz shared her sewing expertise and assisted them with this fun project.










Junior High students began their machine sewing project by cutting out the pattern for their bags. They learned how important it was to focus on the measurements of their pattern and to do a nice job cutting their fabric so their project would turn out well. After cutting out their patterns, JH students learned how important ironing can be to ensure flat seams when sewing.










Congratulations to Kamden Brookens and Drayton Hampton for making the KMZU Football Dream Team

Updated boys bracket for I-70 conference; notice time change from the original bracket.

Students in Foods class looked at the amount of sugar in their favorite beverages. Blake's Mountain Dew had the most with 46 g of sugar, but they were all surprised to see that their single 12 oz beverage met or exceeded the daily recommended allowance.






Congratulations to the following students for making JH Honor Band:
