Upsala Area Schools

Big congratulations to Upsala’s own Gabe Barthel and Morgan Ripplinger for their outstanding performances at the Knights of Columbus Free Throw State Championship this past Saturday! Gabe, a 5th grader, earned an impressive 3rd place finish by making 21 of 25 free throws. Morgan, an 8th grader, also made 21 of 25 to force a first-place tie—then sealed the win by going a perfect 5-for-5 in the tiebreaker to claim 1st place! Great job Gabe and Morgan! We’re proud of you both!

During our AHA Kids Heart Challenge fundraiser we are learning the skills of hands-only CPR and the warning signs of stroke. The students did a wonderful job paying attention to all the important components.
