District 6 Girls District Tournament
Lady Raiders will take on the Bishop Ryan Lions on Feb 10th at 5 pm at the Minot Auditorium for the District Play in game.

At the beginning of the school year, five students applied for a new FFA jacket through the Blue Jackets, Bright Futures program through the ND FFA Foundation. Four of the six students were awarded a jacket. They were notified in December of their awards. Their jackets have finally arrived and they are very excited to put them to good use! They will wear their jackets to the several conferences and competitions that will take place throughout their time in FFA. This is an outstanding group of students, and we are excited to see where their blue jacket will take them!

Thanks to the Small Towns Big Dreams Foundation, all fans get free admission to the Raiders basketball game vs. Glenburn on February 5th! 🏀 See you there!

🇺🇸District 3 VFW Commander Trent Thomas and VFW Post 6831 Commander Terry Miller stopped by today to recognize a couple of our students.
📝Louis Lemer's Patriot's Pen essay placed first at the local level and moved on to take 3rd at the district level. Zakary Berger also placed 3rd at the district level after placing first at the local level earlier this year with his Voice of Democracy audio-essay. The theme this year for both the Patriot's Pen and Voice of Democracy was: "How Are You Showing Patriotism and Support for Our Country?"
👏🏼Congratulations to Louis and Zak and a special thank you to Trent, Terry, and all of the VFW post members for the work they do to provide this opportunity to our students! ❤️🤍💙
