More pictures of the Bottineau Winter Park fun!🥳
🎶 Oh, what fun it is to ride at the Bottineau Winter Park! ❄️ The elementary school took in some tubing and had a blast! I think it's safe to say the teachers had just as much fun as the kids.☺️
The Battle of the Houses has commenced, and the results are in!
Voting took place online and each school voted for their favorite gingerbread house in their respective schools. Here are your winners!
At the elementary: Gingerbread House #2 in a landslide.
At the high school: House #6 by a VERY slim margin
People’s Choice (online): House #6- Was it the DAHS or the popcorn that was the deciding factor? 😂
The teachers all had a great time! However, now the competition has escalated with one side saying gingerbread kits made this battle too easy and the other stating graham crackers do not truly represent a gingerbread house. But overall, it doesn’t matter, because in the end, the winner just gets bragging rights….until next year…😂 Happy Holidays, Everyone!
🇺🇸 It was Military Appreciation night at Drake Anamoose as the Lady Raiders and Raiders took on the Center-Stanton Wildcats. A huge shout-out to SFC Andrew Tanata and to our very own Private McKenna Melaas, and a special thank you to our veterans and to all those currently serving. We honor you today and everyday! ❤️🇺🇸

The 4th graders have been learning a lot about medieval Europe. They have learned what life was like and what jobs were available in the Middle Ages. They even decided to build a castle in the back of their classroom! 🏰
Today was AWESOME! The Anamoose Elementary students were visited by Kevin Lovegreen, author of the Lucky Luke book series. Kevin kicked off the day by greeting everyone in the gym, discussing all the steps an author has to go through to publish a book, and quizzing students on different animal calls. After the school wide assembly, he spent time in each classroom, working with students on their writing skills. Kevin lives in Minnesota and writes books based on his childhood hunting and fishing experiences. We were excited to have the opportunity for the students to participate in this unique experience.📚🦌🎣🫎
