Today is National Walk to School Day. Our School is the recipient of the Safe Routes to School Planning Grant which will help our School plan safe travel for our pedestrians and cyclists. Walking to school allows for a little bit of exercise before starting the day and improves our children's learning. Our parents should be on the lookout for a survey to fill out and help us continue in planning for improvements that we hope will increase walking, cycling, and safe traffic around our school.

FAQ of the Day - Does Turf Lead to More Injuries in HS Sports?
Beth Swanson, M. Ed., Licensed Athletic Trainer at Heartland Orthopedic, gives her perspective on the question of "Does Turf Lead to More Injuries in HS Sports?" - installing a Synthetic Turf at our Athletic Complex is Part of Ballot Question #2, a feature that will increase our use of that space from 50 hours/year to nearly 1,500 hours/year. https://youtu.be/XfEyZ2xmy5E
October is College Knowledge Month! During the month of October, I will be sending students in grades 9-12 a daily email with links to college and career related topics. There will also be a daily question related to the day's topic. All students answering correctly will get entered into a drawing for a prize each Friday in October.
Today's topic was Free Applications to Minnesota State and Colleges and Universities. Several colleges waive application fees during the month of October. Please encourage your child to get their applications in this month!

The 2nd Graders went on a field trip to Prairie Wetlands Learning Center, followed by a visit to Otter Cove Children's Museum in Fergus Falls. The students loved discovering, looking at, and listening to nature at PWLC. At the museum, students could explore an indoor playground area, pretend play in a variety of recreated storefronts, entertain themselves with some arts and crafts, and much more.

Student Reach Minnesota and Reggie Dabbs will provide a free evening program for youth and adult community members at 6:30. Reggie Dabbs uses the power of music to share an inspirational message centered around the theme "I can, you can, we can".
All community members are invited to attend.
With the changes in the FAFSA application for this year, the application will not be available until December. The information I shared regarding materials needed is still accurate, but the launch date is being pushed back to December. During conferences I will still be available in the Media Center for questions regarding FAFSA and that would be a good time to take advantage of the College Knowledge Month free applications. Please reach out to me if there are topics you have questions about so I can prepare materials/information for you.
