The NLCS Annual Health Fair 2024 was last Wednesday. We had tables with reps from the YMCA, Essentia Health, NAMI, Itasca County Public Health, Grand Itasca with Fairview Health, Meds 1, First Call for Help 211, CMH, Kootasca/Circles of Support. There were 15 community representatives interacting/engaging with our students. In addition, our own staff taught CPR/First Aid (Benita/Henry), Mental Health self-care (Haven/Lori), Leisure Walking (Don/Braidy). The overwhelming response from our guests was that our kids were amazing and they'll be back next year to do it again.

presentation night
Since some social media had some connection issues recently we hadn't noticed that our posts weren't going out as usual. So we're doing a media dump now to get you all updated to what's been going on around NLCS.

Today was a special activity day. The middle-level students taught us about natural disasters. The Semmler Farm brought a Scottish Highland cow and other farm animals to check out up close. Students also learned about the climate and weather as well as the Conservation Corps.
