4th grade had a great time in the parade, cheering on the Cougars! 💜💙
The third grade class is excited to have Kylie Willems visiting every month for the Pick a Better Snack Program! Each time we will learn a little about fruits and vegetables and we even get to try them.
Tonight's JV football game vs BCLUW in Ackley has been postponed due to forecast and field conditions. Make-up date TBD.
Registration is now open for AGWSR girls in 3rd-6th grades who are interested in playing youth basketball this season! Our goal is to give the girls a fun and positive experience while helping them develop their basketball skills, learn teamwork, and build friendships with their classmates. Teams will participate in practices, weekend tournaments, and/or scrimmages throughout the season.

Due to the weather this week, we have not been able to do window painting at area businesses. We will not be able to get that in this year because of scheduling issues. We will try again next year. Thank you to all the businesses that reached out to be a part of this new tradition! We appreciate your continued support of our students!
