7th & 8th Graders Enjoy a Day at St. Croix National Scenic Riverway
Seventh- and eighth-grade students enjoyed an educational and fun day in nature at the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway. Students worked through a cycle of stations, which ranged from fishing and river mucking to games of capture the flag and nine-square volleyball.
Several special guests joined GMS to add additional enrichment opportunities. Adriana Addison led a survivalist station that included building temporary shelters. John Bosak presented “Sweets from Trees,” where students enjoyed maple root beer and maple creams while they enjoyed John’s discussion on maple syrup.
A special thanks goes to the Crex Education Center for bringing owl pellets for students to dissect. The day was packed with engaging presentations and hands-on activities that kept students engaged in nature!
GMS Students Assist with Groundskeeping at Memory Lake
Grantsburg Middle School 5th and 6th grade students participated in a community service effort under the guidance of the village groundskeeping crew. Students helped with spreading mulch and touching up paint at Memory Lake and the cemetery.
They did a terrific job getting the park ready for a busy summer season!
