Youth apprenticeships allow students to gain real-world experience in their chosen field. This practical approach provides them with the skills and knowledge needed to perform tasks effectively in a professional environment. We are proud to be having this experience for our students! Thank you Ashley and Madison for bringing your work into our school!
Please give a warm welcome to our new Superintendent, Craig Olson. Welcome to the Winter School District!
Last night at Birchwood both JV and Varsity had strong performances. The varsity had their best team score of the year, aided by Dakota's 4 conference points, Jared's 10 and
Adam's 24. This puts both Adam and Jared on the first team-all conference points list. On the JV side Noah Shannon tied his best round of the year, on his 16th birthday - nice job!!
Reminder to get those Summer School forms in
Reminder about Evacuation Drill tomorrow
The varsity team played the Cumberland invitational yesterday, competing against 12 other tough teams. It was one of our better teams performances. Justin Kinsley made his first varsity appearance, and played really well - consistent on both 9's. Dakota had his best front 9 of the year, but struggled on the back. Jared played very strong on both, and Adam placed 10th overall out of 65 golfers. Great job Warriors!

Winter 4th and 5th Grades were lucky enough to once again be invited to Hidden Acres Dairy for a farm tour. The day was packed with learning all of the ins and outs of a dairy farm. The teachers and kids are very thankful and grateful to have been invited and to have the opportunity to experience life on the farm! We were even spoiled with ice cream, ice cold milk, string cheese, and a goodie bag! Part 2
