Cougar Nation

A great group of young leaders from AGWSR attended a Leadership Conference at Dike today! They did team building activities, heard a couple speakers - including Troy Belmer- and had a lot of laughs and learning! But the real excitement started when we were headed home and told to reroute to Wellsburg because of incoming storms to Ackley. So we hung out in the middle school for about 15 minutes and finally got back to Ackley. Thank you to the crew at Dike-New Hartford that put on the conference today! It was a great experience for the students!! Group Picture: Kaesyn, Brooklynn, Lila, Leah, Hadley, Denver, Carli Landen, Emmitt, Eli, Brady

Last week, 9th and 10th grade biology students explored their carbon footprint and impact on the environment. They also researched and interacted with ways to reduce that impact, thanks to Black Hills Energy. Students were able to take home energy-saving kits and have the opportunity to use the items in their own homes. Thank you, Black Hills Energy!
