In 4th grade we are learning about elastic potential energy! We had such a BLAST!
Who says practicing vocabulary can't be fun? In 4th grade we are always trying new ways to study our vocab. This week we tried a new game called "Message in a Bottle." The class was put in pairs and had only 7 minutes to come up with their own definition or scenario to match each vocabulary word that was inside a bottle of water.
Congrats to Sophia for being selected to the All Region 4 Girls Basketball team.
Thank you to the Union Bank for providing pizza and dinnerware for last night's Family Coding Night. The pizza was a hit!
The 3rd graders have been participating in the Kids, Compost, Crops & Consumption curriculum through the NDSU Extension, led by Kelsey Deckert. Today’s lesson focused on learning all about the different food groups and how they fuel our bodies.
To wrap up the lesson, students had the opportunity to make their own quesadillas filled with fresh vegetables like broccoli, spinach, bell peppers, and salsa. The kids absolutely LOVED the healthy afternoon snack and were excited to try something new!

We will be sticking with our 2 hours late today. Please remember you have the right to keep your child(ren) home if you deem it to be unsafe to travel. Buses will be running, they may run behind and depending on the roads, may struggle to get to some places. Please drive safe this morning.

Mr. Jordan
With the current weather conditions, we will be starting 2 hours late today. (10:30am). There will be no breakfast served and no before school program. We will keep you posted and will try to make a final decision by 8:00am.
Hello Wilton Families,
We are monitoring the possible weather moving into our area tonight/tomorrow. If conditions prevent us from holding school face-to-face, we will transition to a virtual learning day.
If we are able to remain in session, buses will run where possible, but please understand delays or limited routes may occur.
As always, the final decision to send your child(ren) to school rests with you. Please use your best judgment based on local conditions and safety.
Thank you for your support, and we will communicate any updates as needed.
