Solen and Cannon Ball Athletics Week at a Glance 10-19

What an AMAZING Homecoming Week! 🎉🏐🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️ From our volleyball games and tailgate to our pep rally, parade, and all the fun activities throughout the week, we had so much to celebrate! We wrapped up our Homecoming festivities yesterday by cheering on our runners at the North Dakota Middle School Cross Country Championships at McDowell Dam near Bismarck! This week was a great reminder of what makes Solen so special. We truly are one big family! 💙🤍 Our school is built on relationships, supporting one another, and showing up to cheer each other on.  A special THANK YOU to Mr. Pelkey and his family for welcoming our cross-country team yesterday and preparing a meal for our runners and their coach. It was another great example of what our school family is all about! Thank you to all our students, staff, families, and community members who helped make this Homecoming Week one to remember! GO SIOUX! 💙🤍

💙🤍 HOMEcoming Memories, SCHOOL SPIRIT, and SIOUX PRIDE! 🤍💙 What an unforgettable Homecoming! From the parade to the school spirit, our Solen community came together to celebrate tradition, pride, and the bonds that make our school special. Thank you to everyone who participated and made this celebration a memorable one!
