Our 3rd graders wrapped up their school year with a fun-filled day in Fargo! They started their adventure at Bonanzaville, where they learned about pioneer life in the 19th century and explored local history. They then spent the afternoon having a blast at Skate City.
It was a great day of learning, fun, and making memories to close out the school year!

A special thank you to another outstanding business partner from the 2025-26 school year! 🐾
Shoutout to Lee Vet Clinic for being a wonderful partner to Mrs. Kulsrud's kindergarten class. Students had the opportunity to learn about veterinary care, and enjoyed a field trip to the clinic where they got a firsthand look at all the great things happening there—and, of course, meet some amazing animals
Thank you for helping create meaningful learning experiences for our students. We appreciate your partnership!
