They say everyday is a good day for golf! There were probably a few kids at RHCC that would have disagreed with you today. The Vikings still had a solid performance finishing 4th with Mason/4th, Remmington/13th, and Lincoln/17th bringing home hardware!

This month, our first graders had quite the surprise—a brand new classmate named Stanley! 😄
But Stanley isn’t your typical student… one morning, while he was fast asleep, a giant bulletin board fell right on top of him! Don’t worry—he wasn’t hurt, but he did wake up completely flat!
At first, it was a shock, but Stanley quickly realized being flat had some amazing perks. He could travel in ways no one else could—slipping into envelopes and heading off on adventures around town, across the state, and even around the world! 🌍✉️
While they didn’t actually gain a new student, their class dove into the story of Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown and completed a fun novel study together. For their final project, each student created their very own Flat Stanley, and Mrs. Moes sent him off on secret adventures—some around town and even to another country. He traveled to Commercial State Bank, Family 1st Dental, Wausa Medical Clinic, Big Red Mini Mart, Elite Diesel, and Carhart Lumber. He perused the streets of Wausa with Officer Boston, traveled with Mr. Hoesing to the Nebraska School Activities Association in Lincoln for some important meetings, and he even went on a vacation to Mexico! Also, we can’t forget that he studied abroad with Addison Wynia in the United Kingdom amongst the castles!
The excitement was contagious as the first graders eagerly waited to see where Stanley would go next. Each letter, photo, and story helped bring the world a little closer to our classroom. Through Stanley’s adventures, students discovered that even the simplest stories can take you anywhere—and that imagination has no limits. ✨📚

The FLBA State Leadership Conference participants took on Kearney last week! They competed through presentations and tests, listened to the key note speaker about perseverance and goal setting, and participated in workshops about business, leadership, and networking! No national qualifiers this year but they give it their all and had their own successes and growth!

The anatomy class applied their year of classroom learning to the anatomy lab at University of South Dakota. They said the best parts were getting to touch, move, and observe a real human and the part where the staff showed them normal and diseased organs.

✨ It was a GLOW-tastic day in 2nd grade math! ✨
Our students turned off the lights and turned on their learning as they practiced math skills in a whole new way. From glowing numbers to bright problem-solving, engagement was shining all around! 💡🟢
Who knew math could glow like this?! Mrs. Anderson sure knows how to make learning fun!
The FBLA blood drive is today in the high school gym between 11:30 and 2:30! We currently have 10 donors signed up but we're hoping for 10 more!

While we were able to provide extra layers from our storage closet so all students could still go outside, we need your help moving forward.
As the weather is still cold in the morning, it’s important that students come to school dressed appropriately for outdoor recess. Temperatures in the 40s require more than just a tshirt—students should have proper outerwear to stay warm and comfortable.
Recess is an important part of the school day and provides much-needed movement and fresh air for growing bodies and minds. We want all students to be able to participate safely.
We appreciate your partnership in helping ensure your child comes to school dressed for the weather each day. Thank you for helping us keep our students safe, warm, and ready to learn!

Today’s temperature was sunny and beautiful! But tomorrow the weather is gonna change. Tomorrow’s feels like temperature is supposed to be around 29°F during our first recess time. That means we need kids to show up in pants and coats so they can enjoy first recess. If they do not have proper clothing and we don’t have enough in our storage, they will have to stay inside with Mrs. Heimes in the lunchroom. Help us keep our kids safe and warm by making sure they wear appropriate clothing to school tomorrow. Thank you for your partnership.
At the end of March, the 5th and 6th graders attended the Bloomfield Honor Band! We are so proud of the hard work they put in! Way to go kids!!

It was a great day for a track meet! The Lady Vikes were Runner-up and the Vikings finished 4th at the HCC Invite!
