Great job to these students!!

🧬 Zak, Mason, Jade, Olivia, and Bella tried their hand at something new yesterday. They traveled to the University of Mary to take part in the Regional Science Bowl.
🧪 They did not make it to the afternoon rounds but made a good effort, earned some points, and definitely had a bit of fun. Who said science isn't fun?!?! Great job!! 👏🏼

The 4th graders attended the Young People’s Concert at Minot State University on Friday, featuring Carnegie Hall Link Up: The Orchestra Swings. This interactive concert introduced students to swing-inspired orchestral music as they played their recorders and sang along with the Minot Symphony Orchestra. Students were engaged, excited, and had a great time. Congratulations to our students on their hard work and dedication in preparing for this incredible performance! 🎶
