It was an active day for students at NLCS today. We started with the 9th graders earning some community service hours at Second Harvest North Central Food Bank.
We are making plans to offer a Drivers' Education class in school soon. If your student would like to participate, please reach out to their advisor and let them know so we can get a good idea of how many are interested. The fee would be $100 for the class.
Another beautiful cake was completed by Leila Jerry. Strawberry banana with strawberry buttercream, taffy and fresh strawberries. Delicious!
The cakes and their makers: Dusty and Talon with a Minecraft Cake, Darreona and Jordin with a peanut butter/apple cheese cake, and Kyler and DeShawn with a triple-layer red velvet cake. Good job, bakers!
Looks like the Chopped Challenge class completed some tasty cakes today! If anyone wants to know why I can't lose weight this is why! So good!
Free Thanksgiving dinners available. Call 218-999-9233 or email ecircle@eldercircle.org to order. Must order by Tues. Nov. 22nd.
Congratulations to Addison Marrier on completion of MAAP STARS Officer training. Addison was awarded her training certificate by Dr. Wayne Jennings.

The new officers traveled to Roseville on Friday to meet with guest speakers Wayne Jennings, Andrew Hasek, and MAAP President Brad Jensen to discuss education opportunities, current education legislation, and how to connect with local representatives.
Thank you to all the participants in the Veterans Day program last Friday. We had a very nice program and the audience was very respectful.

Oregon Trail Seminar - students studied the history about the trail and the trials during the journey. They tested their wits and decision making by playing the board game. And made diaromas representing the carriages, animals and supplies needed for the long journey.
