☘️ STEM DAY! ☘️
Mrs. Stafslien’s class was challenged to make LEPRECHAUN TRAPS using the STEM methods. They had to design a plan, engineer their traps, and put them to the test!
They only had a few supplies to use and many improvements were made. They had so much fun and did such a great job!
I hope they can catch one! 🪤

Pop, popcorn, water, candy, and pizza are some examples of foods that we have been given. Masks ARE REQUIRED on campus. Fans will not be admitted to the game if they are not wearing a mask and will be asked to wear one at all times. I have been informed that if a fan is not wearing a mask, they will be asked to leave the premises. See attached bracket for game time information.


Starting tomorrow masks will no longer be required at Stanley Schools. Masks are strongly recommended, but no longer required.

Gotta Go Driving School will be having a student/parent information & sign up meeting Thursday, March 4 @ 7 PM at the Stanley High School in the teacher workroom. For more information call or text Bonita at 701-240-4993.

Students in grades K-6 who are learning online through Edgenuity or from home due to quarantine/isolation, etc. can join our Virtual Lunch Bunch on Teams!

If you have any questions, please let Mrs. Cuypers know. Can't wait to see you!


Essler's 7th grade Life Science has been learning about the flow of energy in a system. We've explored the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration, specifically. This week your scientists investigated how glucose affects the rate of cellular respiration. On Wednesday they made yeast beads, it was a pretty cool process! Then today we used the beads to put in respirometers that they assembled to measure the amount of CO2 (carbon dioxide) produced in our Control (just water + yeast beads) versus our Experiment (glucose + yeast beads). #esslerscience





Congratulations to Mr. Stafslien for receiving Region 8 Athletic Director of the Year!

Essler's Biology used spinach to measure the rate of photosynthesis! The biologists chose between sodium bicarbonate (source of carbon dioxide) or light intensity to manipulate the rate of photosynthesis! They first vacuumed the air out of the spinach cads, then as photosynthesis occurred and created oxygen they watched the spinach cads begin to float! #esslerscience
