Sunshine, smiles, and bestie vibes. ☀️

In celebration of Native American Heritage Month, elementary schools across the district hosted Drum & Dance events where Native American drummers and dancers from Moorhead High and Horizon Middle School—plus their own elementary classmates—visited and performed a set of traditional songs and dances. Each event was emceed by Matthew Johnson, the Indian Education Liaison for S.G. Reinertsen Elementary. For the final song of each show, the audience was invited to participate, leading to gyms full of Spuds dancing along to the beat of the drum. Many youngsters were even seen dancing out of the gym on the way back to their classrooms! #FoundationsForTheFuture

Spuds helping Spuds—Robotics Team creates inclusive tech tool for our very own Amarah! 💛 Amarah’s school team has been collaborating with the Robotics team to design assistive technology tailored to her unique needs. One of their goals was to find a way for Amarah to raise her hand. After some creative brainstorming and a bit of trial and error, the team discovered that a head switch would be the most effective solution. The Robotics team then took that idea and brought it to life, using the head switch and mechanical arms to build a working device.
