The Hjemkomst Center has long stood as a symbol of Moorhead’s history and culture, but it’s the people inside who keep that story alive. Two Moorhead High alums now work there preserving local history, from century-old photographs to immigrant traditions, while helping new generations see how deeply the past connects to the present.

February is Career & Technical Education Month! We're celebrating the exciting CTE opportunities that Spuds can experience at the MHS Career Academy. We start it off this week with Business & Entrepreneurship:
The Moorhead High School Business Department—led by faculty members Leah Spotts, Kathi Salvevold and Trish Roningen—provides students with a competitive edge in the modern professional world. Beyond the classroom, our department manages the School Store at both campus sites, offering students a "living lab" to practice retail management and operations in real-time.
Our department is the proud home of Business Professionals of America (BPA), our premier Career and Technical Student Organization (CTSO). We are excited to celebrate our multiple participants headed to the State Leadership Conference next month!
We also take pride in hosting the Personal Finance course—a vital program that has recently become a Minnesota state graduation requirement. From managing the school store to earning college credits and competing at the state level, our students graduate ready for financial independence and career success.
