📚✏️ Supply List Update! 🗂️

Please see our updated supply list for students in grades 7-12. Mr. Norstedt has added folders to his supply list to help keep learners organized.

Happy shopping, Blue Jays! 🛒📝

📅 Stanley School 2025-2026 Calendar Available!

We encourage all families to review the calendar as you plan vacations and appointments throughout the year. Minimizing time out of school helps support consistent learning and student success.

📌 Important Reminder for Grades 7-12 Families:
Semester finals are scheduled for the last days of each semester—right before Christmas break and again at the end of the school year. Please avoid scheduling trips during these times, as students are expected to take finals before leaving for break. (Students in grades 9-12 have semester exemptions based on their grades and attendance. If students have an A for the class, they are allowed 4 days of absences, B = 3 days, C = 2 days. Students earning a D/F must take finals. Students with 5+ absences must take finals.)

Thank you for partnering with us to support student learning!

2025-2026 Stanley Elementary School Supply List for all you early shoppers!

Do these items look familiar? They are looking for their owners. You can stop by the school Monday-Friday from 8:00-4:00, call before you stop to make sure someone is at the office.

Sixth graders have been working all year completing timed math tests. Pictured are the members of the 400 club (they solved 100 problems in 4 operation in 3 minutes) and 800 club (200 problems in 4 operations in 3 minutes). Great job, sixth grade mathematicians!

6th grade parents are invited to watch the 6th grade walkthrough starting at 11:50am. The route will take students through the main office and the lunch room where you can stand and take pictures.

In the process of cleaning out lockers and the locker room at the High School, many items have found their way to the lost and found table in the front entry. There are many name brand items and clothes/shoes that are in good shape. Any items not claimed by 3:00 pm on Friday, May 23rd will be donated. Please stop by or have your child check for any missing shoes, bags, or articles of clothing.

You brought the smiles, we brought the science — and together, we made magic happen! A heartfelt thank you to everyone who stopped by our Junior High Science Fair. Whether you were asking curious questions, marveling at our Science Investigatory Projects, or geeking out over the EV3 Lego Mindstorms, your energy made the day unforgettable!

Reminder - Thursday and Friday are Final Test Days for students in grades 7-12. All students in grades 7/8 will be taking their finals. Students in grades 9-12 are exempted based on their attendance and grades. (A = 4 absences or less, B = 3 absences or less, C = 2 absences or less) Students in grades 9-12 were provided a sheet this morning that listed which tests they needed to take. Please ask your child for this paper when they arrive home this evening. If students do not need to take their tests, this is not a time to socialize, as the rest of their classmates will be testing. If your child has an hour where they do not need to test, they are not required to be at the school. However, if they would like a place to stay and study they should report to the office and we will provide a supervised location for studying. Students should not gather in the hallways, in the gym, or remain in classrooms if they are not testing. The last day of school is a half day with a grab and go lunch. If your child would like to be dismissed before the end of lunch, you need to call the high school or email Camie.Anderson@k12.nd.us. Additionally, students are able to pick up their schedules for next year. If any changes need to be made, we will address those changes during registration days in August. Please watch the website as that time draws near.

To honor one of Jacob's last wishes , for us to help make a difference for other children and families facing childhood cancer, we are so very honored, humbled and appreciative of everyone who came together to raise money. 🎗️ Every donation, no matter the size, helps carry Jacob’s legacy forward by supporting the fight against childhood cancer. Thank you for your support and love. 💛

The Last Day of School is Friday, May 23rd. Both the elementary and high school will dismiss at 12:00 pm. Elementary students will need to bring their own lunch for picnic day (they will not be serving lunch in the elementary cafeteria). High school students will finish final tests at 11:33 and a "grab and go" lunch will be available. If parents of high school students want their child to leave at 11:33, they MUST contact the high school office via phone or email to let them know the student is able to leave at that time. Buses will pick up at the elementary school at noon, then pick up at the high school at approximately 12:10 pm.
