Our 6th grade social studies students took their learning outside the classroom with a field trip to Fort Juelson near Underwood!
After learning about the Dakota War in Minnesota, students had the opportunity to explore a historic site, observe the surrounding landscape, and ask questions about the events and people connected to the area.
The visit also provided an opportunity to reflect on the area’s Indigenous history, including the ancient burial mounds located at the site, and the importance of respecting and preserving the history of the land.

First graders went to Glendalough State Park on a beautiful fall day in October. Dora, the park naturalist, taught us about different kinds of trees and leaves at the park. We collected some leaves and did some leaf rubbings with them. It was a great day filled with fun!

🚒 A huge thank-you to the Battle Lake Fire Department for hosting our kindergarten students at the Fire Hall! The students learned about the fire trucks and some of the special tools firefighters use to help others. They enjoyed a tour of the station and learned what firefighters look and sound like when wearing their protective gear. The visit ended with lots of smiles as the students rode back to school in a fire truck! ❤️
