Please note we have a few schedule changes for baseball and softball this coming week (see below).
Baseball @ Missouri Valley on 5/27 will now be played at 1:00 PM. They will be playing varsity only.
Softball vs IKM-M on 5/29 has been postponed and will now be played as a double header on 6/13 @ IKM-M.
Both of these changes were made so that athletes competing in spring sports postseason could still compete without missing baseball or softball games.

Congratulations to junior Julia Thomas on her incredible achievement of writing and publishing her very first novel!
Her debut book, Saving Star Lake, is now available on Amazon!
📖 About the Book:
Saving Star Lake follows Luke Emerson and Emma Burkley, lifelong best friends who’ve grown up in the paradise of Star Lake Resort. Their idyllic world is shattered when a scandal shakes the community and sends the resort’s success spiraling.
One year later, with the help of new friends Caleb Donnely, Zoe Edwards, and Alex Wilson, Luke and Emma set out to rescue their beloved Star Lake from the grasp of a powerful investor — someone who had a hand in the very scandal that upended their lives.
As they uncover secrets and push against forces that want their story buried, the friends discover the importance of trust, gratitude, and living life on your own terms. Together, they prove that no matter how impossible it may seem, they will save Star Lake.

Last week HS Baking II students spent time working with Wild Magnolias owner, Erin Johnsen, on a wedding cake project. They learned about pricing wedding cakes, working with a bride to develop a custom order, and creating wedding cakes and cupcakes for the order. We are grateful to partner with a local business owner and have the opportunity to give students a hands-on bakery experience. #WeAreTheU









Congratulations to our state track qualifiers! They will compete later this week in Des Moines. Stay tuned for more details! #WeAreTheU
