NLCS students had their first EE Day of the year this afternoon. Lots of Environmental Education activities outside. EE Days are designed to increase awareness, knowledge, attitude, skills, and action in regards to the environment.
Bring the kids to our fall, Halloween Carnival. There will be classic games to play - ring toss, duck pond, etc. - for prizes. Tickets will be .50 each. Money raised will support our MAAP STARS activities.
A few more pics of the teambuilding activities.
NLCS students spent the afternoon engaged in teambuilding activities. Looked like a lot of fun. This is how we get kids engaged and bring out those leadership skills!

I just learned today that if I post to Instagram it crops the pictures into squares instead of showing the full thing. This is the wide-screen version of the Friday staff picture. We didn't have the full crew available so we'll try again at a future date.
The first week of school is done! It has been great to see our kids again. Have a safe and happy Labor Day weekend. Thank you for choosing Northern Lights Community School!
Reminder - we are now partnering with Ross Resources to improve attendance. Starting on Tuesday, the parents/guardians of students who are marked absent will start receiving automated attendance calls. Please make sure you call 218-492-4400 to let us know about absences ahead of time to avoid the calls. Thank you.
Picture quality was pretty bad. Let's try this...
The NLCS students have spoken and they want us on Instagram! Say hello to our newest staff member, Jazz! (and her aunt, Teaka). Stay tuned for more!
