Reminder...No School February 17 due to President's Day!


The high school and CRES finished off dress-up week with a whiteout and Valentine's colors!










4th graders are busy getting ready for their STEAM Expo at the end of February! The theme of the expo is Native American Tribes. In Technology and Innovation class, each group of students selected a tribe to research. They are currently working on compiling the research, presenting their research in Google Slides or with a video in the green screen room, 3D printing the type of housing their tribe traditionally lived in, and painting the finished 3D product.


The Crosby-Ironton Dance Team is leaving for State! There will be a procession through town around 1:15 today (Thursday, 2/13). Let's line the streets and cheer these state-bound athletes on! Best of luck, Rangerettes!

"On Wednesdays We Wear Pink!" Our hallways were a sea of pink.💕










5th graders are wrapping up a microgreens unit in Technology and Innovation class. The students coded Micro:bits to use soil sensors and water pumps to water microgreen seeds, whenever the soil became too dry. They have started to harvest the plants! Last week, the students harvested broccoli and radishes. Most students also chose to eat a few of their plants as well!

Students ,in Mrs. Syrstad's Literacy Cycle Class, have been learning about the Holocaust to better comprehend their Holocaust Literature book club novels. In class, we read a poem called The Butterfly. Students then created a butterfly to represent some aspect of the Holocaust (liberation, persecution, etc). Here are some of the butterflies that were created.
