Summer School Is Off to a Strong Start: A Successful Couple Weeks!
The first four weeks of our Summer School program have been a great success, filled with enthusiastic learning, creative exploration, and a strong sense of community. Students from across grade levels have been actively engaged in academic enrichment and skill-building, making the most of their summer break.
This year’s program offers a wide range of courses designed to support students in core subjects like Math and Reading while also encouraging creativity through electives such as Art, STEM projects, and Physical Education. Teachers have created dynamic, hands-on learning experiences that keep students motivated and excited to attend each day.
Our goal is to create a fun and focused environment where students can grow academically and socially. The energy and participation we’ve seen so far have been incredible.
In addition to academics, students have enjoyed interactive group activities, team-building exercises, and field trips around the town. Parents have shared positive feedback, noting their children’s eagerness to attend and the noticeable gains in confidence and skills.
With several more weeks to go, we look forward to continuing the momentum and providing a meaningful, enriching summer experience for all participants.
Stay tuned for more updates as Summer School continues to shine in the last two weeks!

We are thrilled to announce a major leap in our journey towards sustainability and hands-on learning: the launch of our very own hydroponic garden, the Bimaadiziwin Growers project!
Thanks to the visionary work of Ms. Jessica Singleton and the support of a grant, our school cafeteria now houses the innovative Flex Farm hydroponics system. This system, originally developed by a professor from NMU, allows us to grow fresh produce right here on campus.
Our Bimaadiziwin Growers have harvested their first batch of lettuce, which was featured at our salad bar today! We invited all staff and students with access to the salad bar to enjoy a fresh, delicious salad crafted from lettuce grown by our student growers.
Our goal is for ZERO leftovers as a way to celebrate and appreciate the hard work of our students. It’s a fantastic opportunity to taste the freshness and quality that comes from our own hydroponic garden.
The Flex Farm isn’t just about providing fresh produce—it’s also a learning tool. Integrated with a K-12 curriculum, it offers a unique educational experience to our students. Interested educators can access the curriculum and learn more about incorporating this system into their classes.
Thank you to everyone who has supported this incredible student-led project. Let’s continue to nurture and celebrate our students’ success as they lead the way in innovative, sustainable agriculture!
After School Program and all other after school activities are cancelled due to inclement weather.

Dear Parents/Guardians,
We wanted to inform you that there has been an increase in illnesses among students recently, including colds, sinus infections, walking pneumonia, and pneumonia. As we head into the Thanksgiving break, we understand that this time of year can bring additional health challenges with the colder weather and seasonal changes. We are taking steps to ensure the health and safety of all students here at school.
What You Should Know:
Colds: Symptoms of a cold typically include a runny or stuffy nose, sore throat, cough, mild fever, and fatigue. While colds are usually mild and self-limiting, they can be contagious. Please follow the school policy regarding illness as listed in the student handbook.
Sinus Infections: Sinus infections (sinusitis) often occur after a cold or other upper respiratory infection. Common symptoms include congestion, facial pain or pressure, thick nasal discharge, headaches, and a sore throat. If symptoms persist for more than a few days, it is important to consult with your child’s healthcare provider.
Walking Pneumonia: Walking pneumonia is a milder form of pneumonia often caused by the bacteria Mycoplasma pneumoniae. Symptoms include a persistent dry cough, low-grade fever, fatigue, sore throat, and mild chest discomfort. It is contagious, so students with walking pneumonia should follow a healthcare professionals advice.
Pneumonia: Pneumonia is a more serious infection of the lungs and can cause higher fever, severe cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, and extreme fatigue. If your child exhibits these symptoms, it is essential to seek medical attention and follow the advice of the healthcare professional on when to return to school.
How You Can Help:
Monitor Symptoms: Please keep your child home from school if they are sick. Rest and hydration are important for recovery, and staying home will help prevent the spread of illness to other students. Please remember that any student with a temperature of 100.3 or above without the use of a fever reducing medication should stay home.
Seek Medical Care: If your child has any of the symptoms listed above, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment. Early medical care can help reduce the severity and prevent complications.
Doctor’s Note: If your child has been diagnosed with walking pneumonia, pneumonia, or a sinus infection, please provide a doctor’s note clearing them to return to school when they are well enough.
We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a healthy school environment. We hope all students are able to rest and relax over break so that we can have a healthier December.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Stacey Daley, RN, BSN
