Congratulations
The Lilly Endowment has announced that Monty Peden has been named a Teacher Creative Fellow and will win a grant of $8,000 to learn to play the alphorn and explore Swiss heritage. "The Hornucopia of Switzerland" is the title of Monty’s project. Monty is the latest of many of our school family who received the fellowships.

Item of Interest
Sometimes our expectations of children fall short. Click here for an inspiring story of a student manager who puts in an inspiring performance the last game of the season.

The new Menominee School
The workers continue to move forward at the site. The kitchen/food serving area and dishwashing area have all received a second coat of paint. Drywall has been applied to the bulkheads in the dining room and the commons area. The framing of walls in the office areas and media center has begun. The installation of windows continues. Cement pour is scheduled this week on the second floor of the south end of the building.

At all other sites, the signage will be installed next week.
