Last month we celebrated the grand opening of the Moorhead High School Career Academy! Check out a few pictures of the building and the grand opening. 🥳 #SpudPride #TBT





These 1999 Spuds were sporting their #SpudPride at a fall football game. #TBT


It's the little things for us! 🤗
Recently a parent posted on social media thanking one of our drivers for going above and beyond. We want to highlight John Rasmussen, bus driver at Moorhead Area Public Schools.
He noticed a first grader was running a minute behind. John made an extra stop down the block in front of their house, to make sure the student didn't miss the bus. These little acts of kindness are what make our school district and community the best place to be!

Check out the hands-on learning our students have been up to at the Moorhead High School Career Academy! Entrepreneurship 1 students spent the quarter designing and creating a mobile app concept. This included designing a company logo, creating a marketing campaign, designing mobile app feature screens and presenting their concept during a market day. Spuds in woodworking and cabinetry class created beautiful wood boards. The students picked materials, cut the wood, sanded and smoothed, and engraved their boards. At the end of the quarter, they held a collaborative event where the nutrition class used the wood boards to display their charcuterie making skills.
