We are excited to share some updates as our 6th graders have a busy and engaging week ahead!
Tomorrow, 6th grade students will be traveling to Bismarck/Mandan for a field trip. On Friday, they will head to Sitting Bull College (SBC) for their marketplace experience. Students are expected to return around 2:45 PM on both days.
Next Monday, our 6th graders will visit the elementary school to take part in a special author visit.
We are excited for all of the great learning opportunities and experiences planned for our students this week!
Easter break is next Friday, April 3 and the following Monday, April 6. There will be no school either of those days.

















A HUGE shoutout to **Mrs. Engle’s 3rd grade class** for taking 1st place in Week 1 of our **statewide March Madness Reading Contest**, put on by **Amira Learning**! 👏🔥
That’s right—this isn’t just in-house competition. Our students are going head-to-head with schools **across the entire state**, and Mrs. Engle’s class came out on top!
Amira Learning is an AI-powered reading program that listens to students read out loud and provides immediate feedback and coaching. It adjusts to each student’s level, helping build fluency, confidence, and comprehension—like having a one-on-one reading tutor available every day. And the results speak for themselves.
Mrs. Engle’s class showed what happens when effort, consistency, and a little competitive fire come together. They didn’t just show up—they set the standard.
To our students: you earned this—be proud and keep pushing!
To Mrs. Engle: outstanding leadership and expectations in the classroom—this is how growth happens.
Week 1 goes to Cannon Ball Elementary… now let’s see who’s ready for Week 2! 👀
