Exciting day at Grantsburg Middle School! 🌟
On December 5, our 5th graders attended a K9 Officer information session and demonstration. Deputy Sheriff Bailey Mangen, Police Chief Mitch Olson, and the talented K9 duo Croix and Tracker came to the middle school to teach our students about alcohol and drug abuse prevention.
This special event marked the conclusion of our annual 5th grade Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse (AODA) awareness and prevention lessons, courtesy of the Burnett County Health and Human Services Department.
A big shoutout goes to Amanda Leckel for her outstanding leadership in crafting these crucial lessons and organizing this unforgettable experience!

Our Kindergarten students went on a virtual field trip to a dairy farm named Old McDonald's Farm in northern New York. They toured a dairy farm, checked in on newborn calves, and learned how cows are milked and how milk is transferred to trucks to be made into milk products like cheese and Cheese-it's. Our students also adopted and named a calf! Our calf was born just after midnight this morning, and we named her Cookie! The Kindergarten students will receive updates on Cookie throughout the school year!
