🩰 Nutcracker Day 2! 🌲 Another fun day of nutcracker activities was had by Mrs. Stafslien’s class today! We went on a virtual fieldtrip by the Southern California Ballet Academy where we learned about the history of the story/ballet, explored a 3D tour of the theater, designed our own costumes, and got to watch the actual ballet performance! We also drew our own nutcrackers and made crowns/soldier hats to wear during the performance! Lilly-Jean was our winner of our Nutcracker trophy this week! Such a fun day!

📖 Because of Winn Dixie Party! 🐕 After finishing the novel, Mrs. Stafslien’s class enjoyed “sandwiches, pickles, lozenges, and animal crackers” which all appear in the book, during our party today! The kids LOVED this story and so far, love the movie too! Thanks to the parents who helped with this!

Hello Everybody!! Aunt Bethany and Uncle Louis made a visit to Stanley High today for ‘Dress As Your Favorite Christmas Character’ day.

Last night the governor announced that his executive order that placed restrictions on athletic contests is set to expire on Monday. This announcement was in addition to NDHSAA passing new guidelines on attendance. Stanley will now allow 300 fans at our games based off of the graduated guidance (see image). For the Lions Tournament starting on Monday, each school will be given 150 tickets per game in Stanley and Ray but 125 tickets per team at Berthold. During the regular season, District 16 voted to distribute up to 75% of the allowable tickets to the home school and up to 25% of the tickets for away schools. For Stanley that would be 225 home tickets and 75 away. Since not all gym sizes are the same, ticket numbers will change based on the host sites gym capacity, but the percentages of distribution will remain the same. Masks are required for all of those in attendance and concessions will remain closed until further notice.

Parents of Jr High/Sr High Students: If your child fails a first semester class, they are ineligible for the first two weeks at the start of the next semester. Please check Powerschool for your child's grades.

Today in Mr. Hellman’s social studies classes the students continued learning about the causes and start of the US Civil War. To show the differences in supplies and weapons the class got to have a mock battle with paper “bullets.” Union soldiers had 3 shots while Confederate soldiers had one. At the end all students battled Mr. Hellman who represented the south at the end of the war. Much like the confederate states, he lost!
