On Friday, May 13, 40 of our high school students went on our annual English Language Learners Field Trip. This year they went to Duluth and got to see the Maritime Museum, Canal Park, the William A Irvin ship, Enger Park, and take a ride on the Vista Fleet! It was an amazing day filled with lots of learning and fun!

Melrose 5th graders joined forces with the Melrose Area Women of Today for an Earth Day Project. Our students collected 64 pounds of plastic, which will be recycled - and eventually used to make a bench for the community!
Our teachers are amazing! Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!
This year's Econ Challenge was all done virtually in stages through April. This year's competitors were Gracelyn Sakry, Brandon Stalboerger, and Grace Petersen. After the first round of competition, which was a 30 question test taken individually, they advanced to the State round. This was another 30 question test taken individually. They didn't advance to the final round, but Gracelyn, Grace, and Brandon had fun, stretched their knowledge of economics a bit, and came away from the competition with a couple pizza meals, a t-shirt, and a cool experience!
Our Youth Theatre Camp started this Tuesday. We have 37 young performers - and after practicing for just one week, they will be performing on Tuesday, May 3.
The 3-4 graders will be performing "Jack and his Amazing, Multi-Colored Beanstalk". The 5-6 graders will be performing "Strictly Fairytale Come Dancing". The shows begin at 6:30 p.m. in the Marit Elliott Performing Arts Center. Admission is $2 per person, 5 and under are free. We hope to see you there!
