This summer, our Moorhead High School Career Academy was thrilled to welcome the Moorhead Police Youth in Action program for a day of hands-on learning and fun!
Our amazing FACS teacher—and former MnACTE New Teacher of the Year—Johanna Heigaard opened up her kitchen to teach the kids how to whip up delicious, homemade chicken nuggets from scratch. 🍗🔥
The Moorhead Police Department’s youth initiatives are all about breaking down barriers and building strong, trusting relationships between local officers and our youth in a positive, informal setting. We love seeing our state-of-the-art Career Academy spaces bring people together to cook, connect, and mentor the next generation!
A huge thank you to Johanna and the Moorhead Police Department for making this summer day so meaningful (and delicious)! 🙌🧡🖤
🚚 BIG NEWS! We are packing our bags and moving to a incredible new home! Starting today, July 1st, 2026, the VISTA Center programs are officially relocating to the Moorhead High School Career Academy!
We hope you are as thrilled as we are that Moorhead Community Education, Early Childhood Family Education, and Adult Basic Education will be moving to continue learning, growing, and connecting in a new environment!
Change is exciting, but our commitment to our amazing Moorhead community remains the same. 🧡🖤
