These Central teammates had a fun time supporting Gavin Holst and Natalya Singleton at the Blue Oval down in Des Moines this Thursday. Gavin finished out his senior year with a 21st place finish in the 3200 m run while Natalya finished her freshman season with a 23rd place finish. Congratulations on a great season!

These busy 5th graders had a full day of learning at The Mississippi River Museum on Wednesday. They learned more about different conservation efforts, Mississippi River history, vulnerable and endangered species and even got to "pet" stingrays! It was a great day to be a WARRIOR!

Third graders enjoyed their field trip to Stonefield in Cassville, Wisconsin. They made butter from heavy cream at the creamery, toured a farmhouse from 1900, traveled through the agricultural museum, and attended a country school. Lots of history today!

⛳️ That’s a wrap on a great golf season for our Warriors! Our girls team competed in Regionals last Friday, with Katie Royer placing 17th overall! 💪 All of them showed incredible improvement throughout the season and we’re so proud of how far they came. Griffen Hammersland represented us at Districts on Monday, and it was awesome to see the varsity team there to cheer him on. Their support and motivation have them fired up to make it to Districts as a team next year! 🔥 They were SO close this year! Such an amazing group of student-athletes to work with — we’re already excited for next season!

Third graders would like to thank Danielle Shea for being their Junior Achievement volunteer. She taught them many things about how a community operates. They really enjoyed creating their own community and choosing businesses for it.

Over the past few weeks, Miss Krogman, freshmen at Iowa State University has been observing Mrs. Bond. Today is her final observation day! She is concluding her experience by teaching a lesson to the middle school students on the parliamentary procedure ability to lay a motion on the table. We wish Miss Krogman success in her summer courses and look forward to seeing her as a agricultural educator in the future!
