Third graders have been busy learning about mass and using grams to measure different items from the classroom.





Dane Pope, Blake Stevenson, Elias White, and Owen Burke have been working on a community project, renovating the informational sign in downtown Elkader. With the help of the Elkader Chamber and Mrs. Ann Gibney, the group has had the assistance of CJ Moyna’s and ThINK to provide an eye catching display at the corner of 1st Street and Bridge Street. Thank you Ryan Burke and his workers at ThINK as well as Ryan Lightfoot and the people at CJ Moyna’s.



Can you spot the cracked weld? Central welding students are studying both non-destructive and destructive ways to test welds using acid etching and dye penetrant. This ensures sound practices are developed.
Don't worry, the defected weld was supplied from an outside location. This group is doing a great job!




Preschool and JK students enjoyed building snowmen for their next-door neighbor, Lillian
