The friends in preschool are officially members of the, "Two Bite Club"! Thank you Ms . Alice for teaching us about the five food groups, and why they are important to keep us healthy and strong! The children all took "two bites" of whole wheat crackers, apples, broccoli, cheese and hard boiled eggs. It was so much fun!

We had an incredible donation of more items come into our school so we decided to fill up empty lockers! The lockers shown are filled with many free items including hygiene products, snacks, socks, lotion, floss, hair brushes, feminine products, deodorant, toothbrushes, etc. The students can grab these items whenever they need them. Thank you to Nina Lange for the donations! If you would like to add to the donation please contact the school!

Student-Athlete Spotlight:

On Monday night, junior Zoey Leners scored a career-high 37 points and hauled in 19 rebounds in Upsala's win over Staples-Motley.

The following evening, fellow junior teammate Alexa Pilarski notched her first career triple-double. Alexa scored 12 points, grabbed 11 rebounds, and dished out 10 assists in the Cardinals' victory over Bertha-Hewitt.

Two outstanding performances on back-to-back nights by two of our girls basketball athletes. Way to go Zoey and Alexa! #CardinalPride
