Junior High 7th, 8th and 9th grade event!
Reminder that we have parent/teacher conferences today from 3:30-7:00 in Waubun and Ogema. We look forward to meeting with you to share your child’s progress!
Waubun-Ogema-White Earth Schools is seeking your feedback. Because our enrollment is growing, we have some long term decisions to make. This gives us a great opportunity to take a deeper look at our District. What do we value as a community? We have held listening sessions throughout January and February and received great feedback! Thank you to everyone who has attended. If you could not attend, now is your time to share what is important to you! Please complete the enclosed survey by March 4, 2019. Sincerely, Lisa Weber Superintendent https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/LSF3B67
Get ready! Wednesday is School Bus Driver Appreciation Day.
School bus drivers are the first face our students see each morning and the last person they see at the end of their day. Be sure to thank a bus driver Wednesday- maybe even make a card or bring the bus garage some doughnuts - to show appreciation for everything our bus drivers do for our students every day!
We will have Spirit Day on Thursday to cheer on our Thunderbirds!
* Wishing Garret Eiynck the best of luck as he prepares for the State Wrestling Tournament
* Good luck to our girls as they have their first playoff game at Park Christian on Thursday night starting at 7:00
Let's cheer them all on!
