Last day of school reminder!


CIS Practical Writing students (and a couple of guests) celebrated their last class day as seniors by partaking in a potluck. Practical Writing seniors this year worked hard to advance their writing skills in order to be ready for whatever school, work, or life writing situations come their way. Congratulations, Class of 2024!






Who said math can't be fun and beautiful? Mr. Bendson's 5th graders took to the sidewalks for math class and came up with these neat creations! Some even continued the fun while at recess 😁

Gavin Lacy, a student in Mr. Schafbuch's welding class, took up the challenge and successfully Tig welded two razor blades together. The blades are 0.008 inch thick, essentially the thickness of two sheets of paper.
TIG welding is best for delicate applications and thin materials because it offers greater control and precision and produces cleaner welds with less spatter. #GoCIGo

Kindergarten visited the Crosslake Army Corps of Engineers Campground last week for their field trip. They learned about how the dam works, went on a bug scavenger hunt, learned about the life cycle of a dragonfly (did you know dragonflies could attack and eat a fish?), and had a lesson on the importance of water safety. Huge shout-out to the Park Rangers for all they did to make our visit so enjoyable!!

On May 8th, SALT students put on Walk to HOPE, a charity walk that benefited Healing Opportunity Provided Equally(H.O.P.E.). H.O.P.E. is a local non-profit organization located in Aitkin, MN, that helps individuals and families around the area escape domestic violence and get back on their feet after the difficult period. SALT students hoped to have at least fifty participants and raise $1,000 during the second year this event has been organized. Instead, SALT students had 165 participants, and raised $2,300 for HOPE! Students worked hard finding sponsors, marketing the event, and organizing all the logistics. We are so proud! Thank you to all who participated and made the event such a success💜
