After much consideration, it is with regret that we’ve made the decision to cancel our annual Craft Fair in 2020, due to the prevalence of COVID-19 in Otter Tail County. The Minnesota Department of Health has encouraged our school to limit entry into our building as much as possible, for the health and safety of our students and staff. If you have already registered, you will be contacted by Tanya Maethner early next week.


AB Volleyball in Sebeka and Varsity Football in Staples, tonight, November 5. Both games start at 6:00pm.
