We were fortunate last week Thursday to host guest Speaker Nick "Sunshine" Tokman who delivered a message about dealing with negative influences, removing distractions and focusing on achieving your life goals, overcoming adversity, and making better decisions for yourself. Staff and students had a blast getting to spend the afternoon with "Sunshine" as seen on Discovery Channel's "Deadliest Catch". A special thank you to the Centerville Area Foundation who donated a generous amount of $1,750 towards making this event happen! We are blown away by the continued support from this group for our school and value them as a partner for our district. Thank you Nick for sharing your story with us! #becomeyourcaptain #ntsunshine

We had a great first week back from break last week! We love having students and staff back in the building doing awesome things. One of the fun highlights of the week was having South Dakota Public Broadcasting's "Science Steve" join us for the afternoon on Wednesday. He did an interactive science assembly for all grades. Steve was very entertaining and educational. The kids and staff both enjoyed his hands-on science demonstrations and had a lot of fun! Mr. Schroeder and Mrs. Skatvold even got in on a demonstration and were thankful that Steve's experiment went as planned! Please see the link below to a document with some videos of Steve interacting with our students and staff, showing off his cool science experiments. Thank you Science Steve for sharing your passion for education and science with our students and staff!
