Drake-Anamoose School Districts

🎼On Friday, Mason, Jade, Emily, and Greyson attended Woodwind Day at NDSU! They participated in masterclasses led by guest woodwind artists, rehearsed alongside the NDSU Wind Symphony, attended a recital, explored the woodwind vendor expo, and performed in a recital with NDSU woodwind ensembles. What a wonderful opportunity to learn from talented musicians, grow as performers, and share their love of music! 🎶 Great job, young musicians!🎶

Our Anamoose-Drake 5th graders, Millie, Wyatt, and Airronn, had an amazing opportunity to participate in Surround the State in Song at Minot North High School under the direction of Jaque Marum, choir director at Bottineau Public School! After spending the entire day rehearsing with students from across the state, they wrapped up the experience by delivering a wonderful concert. What a special day filled with music, teamwork, and learning!

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to State Superintendent Levi Bachmeier for taking the time to stop by our schools today! We appreciate the opportunity to share the great things happening in our classrooms, highlight the hard work of our students and staff, and discuss the unique opportunities and challenges of education in rural North Dakota. Apparently, we were so busy enjoying the conversations that we forgot to take more pictures! However, often times the best visits are the ones where you’re too engaged in the moment to remember the camera. Thank you again for taking the time to visit! We hope you enjoyed your time with us, and, of course, your coffee! ☕😊 🖤🤍Every Child. Every Chance. Every Day. 🤍🖤
