8 seniors met with a rep from Job Service ND to find out what programs their career goals qualify them for. Over the last few years, we've had several graduating seniors participate in the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) program that pays up to $16,000 to students majoring in high demand careers.
Currently only two year tech degrees and some outlying programs like CDL and pilot licensing qualify. Talk to Ms. Beckstrom if you have questions or google WIOA ND.

October 4th - 10th is Fire Prevention Week.
Today, the first graders learned about fire safety and community helpers with the McVille Fire Department.
It was a great interactive learning experience!
The senior class did a 7 Mindset project with the fifth and sixth grade on “Everything is Possible” with four different stations.
They made vision boards, did a think and act STEM project, turned their negative thoughts into positive ones, and persevered on a challenging word search.
Today is World Teacher's Day. Did you have a teacher who inspired you or made a difference in your life? We'd love to know! Comment below!
Have a great week!

Today is National Custodian Appreciation Day.
Orange Shirt Day is a special day on September 30th when people wear orange shirts to remember and honor Indigenous children who were forced to go to residential or boarding schools.
🧡 Every Child Matters.
🧡 Every Child Belongs.
🧡 Every Child Deserves Kindness and Respect.
Yesterday was a reminder of the importance of honoring Indigenous children and the history of residential schools while continuing to build schools where everyone feels safe, valued, and included. The 4th grade honored every single child by wearing orange to remind everyone that Every Child Matters.
