We had a great district wide professional development day. The day started with a poverty simulation for all staff led by Rebecca Lewis-Pankratz. In the afternoon, Rebecca Lewis-Pankratz talked to staff about her personal story of poverty and trauma, events that led her out of poverty, her current work with some of the most challenging students, and strategies our staff can use with students.
Updated Play Prop List - if it's not crossed off we still need it. Contact Erin Toole for pick up or drop off at the art room.
HS JV FB HERE vs Linn on Oct. 21st has been cancelled and will not be rescheduled.

Last run of the day and our HS boys did great! There were 112 boys total in today's race. Atticus was our first finisher and just 1 place out of medals at 21st place, Garrison was 41st, Lucas was 79th, Ryan was 89th, and Garrett was 97th. Keep working hard, only 2 more guaranteed meets and we are hoping for the third as state!

Our Jh boys ran well today at the Riley County Meet. Lyle was our top finisher and medalist in 8th place for the 8th grade boys. In the 7th grade boys division, Xander was 15th and Robert was 30th. Carter and Emery were both sick today and didn't compete. Thursday is the JH's last meet. It's the BVL meet!
Another tough loss to Mankato Rock Hills 56-6. The boys are improving and getting better. I believe this was our best effort of the year.
