Thank you for helping students find their voices, build confidence, and achieve success both inside and outside the classroom. We appreciate all that you do for our school community! 💙
Join us for a fun-filled afternoon following the Elementary Spring Program and a grill-out lunch! 🌭☀️
Students will compete in races, field events, relays, and tug-of-war throughout the day. Check out the attached schedule so you know where to be and when. Let’s have an amazing day together!
"On Monday, members of the Ottertail Lakers 4-H Club — Ella Horn, Everett Horn, Emmett Horn, Lillian Grieger, Brynley Jogerson, and Garrett Olson — visited the second grade classroom!
Students learned about 4-H, the activities members can participate in, and how to join 4-H. They also played the “Opposite Game,” where if someone said “Stop,” you had to walk, and if someone said “Walk,” you had to stop!
Students then learned about STEM and what STEM stands for. During the lab activity, students were given clay and challenged to shape it so it would float in water. In the second challenge, students needed to create a sculpture with a hole that light could shine through. Once their sculptures were placed in the water, students were given a weight to test whether their creation would sink or float.
Students were then asked, “Would you want a pool floaty in this shape?” Most answered, “No!” Finally, students were able to remix their clay and create their own sculpture to dry and take home."
Thank you to the Ottertail Lakers 4-H Club for coming in and sharing this awesome experience with the second graders!
Students were recognized for academic excellence, scholarships, National Honor Society membership, Student Council involvement, and Honor Awards earned through outstanding GPA achievement. We are so proud of the hard work, leadership, and dedication shown by these students throughout their high school careers.
A heartfelt thank you to all of the organizations, community members, and donors who generously provided scholarships and awards and took the time to present them this morning. Your support makes a lasting impact on our students and their futures.
Special thanks as well to Mr. Williams and Mrs. Damm for organizing and presenting such a wonderful ceremony to honor our seniors and their accomplishments. Congratulations to the Class of 2026!
After the program, stick around for Track & Field Day and a grill out at the football field!
