Update on tonight's Girls Middle School Game

Last week, our girls basketball team had an opportunity to head down to Eau Claire to watch the Blugolds take on UW-River Falls. Eau Claire fell to River Falls, but girls and coaches had a blast and got to experience the level that these college athletes play at. Thanks to the Eau Claire coaching staff for hooking us up with some free tickets!

Thank you so much, Dr. Ray, for bringing real fossils for my 2nd graders to see! The students were incredibly excited and fascinated, and they loved learning from such amazing real-life examples. We are very thankful! 🦖🦕🙂

Last night, our boys picked up their first win against our friendly rivals, the Birchwood Bobcats. In this JV contest, the Warriors outlasted a stellar performance from Birchwood 3 point sniper Xalen Bergstrom (7 made 3’s for 21 points) and won by 3. Everyone contributed to the win and it was smiles all around as the final buzzer sounded.
It was a great night for Warrior hoops!

Mrs. Olson's second graders have been learning about fossils and how scientists use them to learn about the past! Today, they became paleontologists and excavated their very own dinosaurs from eggs! They had a dino-mite time discovering what was hidden inside. 😎🦕🦖

At tonight’s basketball games vs. Birchwood we were proud to recognize our officials as part of WIAA Officials Appreciation Week. We took time to get photos with the officiating crew to show our gratitude for the important role they play in making our games possible. In addition, we stocked the “ref lounge” with extra snacks and drinks as a small thank-you for their time, professionalism, and dedication to student-athletes. We truly appreciate everything our officials do for high school sports!

Be the 1 Recognition: Be the 1 is recognition for outstanding work and commitment to the Winter School’s staff and students and our community. Kelli Loser was nominated for the Staff Be the 1. Kelli has been super helpful since Craig has gotten here. She is always going above and beyond. Abigail was nominated for the student Be the 1. Abigail is described as always smiling and positive. She is always trying to build up her peers and she is a very hard worker! Congratulations!!

The Physical Science students have been learning about distance, speed and acceleration through the ever popular paper airplane lab! Each student had a class period to design, build and test different types of paper airplanes. Then, yesterday, we had a competition to see who's plane had the greatest distance and speed. Suddenly, doing all of the math calculations wasn't so bad!
