The 7th graders traveled to St. Cloud this past Tuesday, February 4th to the Paramount Theatre in St. Cloud to attend GREAT Theatres production of Disney's Newsies. This trip was funded through a generous donation from the Cuyuna Lakes Education Foundation (CLEF).
We are so incredibly thankful for the support CLEF continues to show the students in our district. With this being a first time trip for the 7th graders, to see a GREAT production, expectations for behavior were high and we were extremely proud of how our 80 students represented the school and community of Crosby-Ironton. We are hopeful that this wonderful experience can become a yearly opportunity for the 7th grade class.
