Sixth graders in Ms. Schlick’s class are currently researching and writing argument papers on why eating insects is beneficial.  They decided that if they were going to  “talk the talk”, they better “walk the walk”.

The February Above The Line theme was “Empathy.” The students listed below received awards on Thursday & Friday, February 18th & 19th from their classroom teacher or staff member who felt that they were an individual that showed empathy towards others.  Congratulations to these students!   Cohort A- Photo taken on February 18, 2021

Deb Moses, candidate for the Sauk Prairie School District board, has decided to remove herself from the race. Moses will still be on the ballot, but wants the public to know she is no longer seeking the position.
