Elementary Math Tip: Give your child a ruler to measure objects around the house. Depending on their grade level, they could measure to the nearest inch or to the sixteenth of an inch. With your help, this hands-on practice teaches how to use a ruler as a measurement tool, how to read a ruler, incorporates math in their daily life, and provides a fun opportunity for your child to practice math!

You may have noticed a number of patrol cars in our high school parking lot this week. The North Dakota Highway Patrol is using our multipurpose room for training. The NDHP appreciates using our centrally located facilities and we appreciate having a police presence in our building each day. Today, the forensics class was able to watch the training and learn about the control tactics the officers use on the job.
Mrs. Pulver learned handcuffing techniques. Mr. Peterson was a little more brave and learned what it was like to be in some of the police holds.
Stanley PE students have been learning the life-long sport of bowling. Special thanks to Jim Dazell for hosting all the students at the alley each week and for providing the delicious Christmas treats today!
