Please remember that our distance learning option is for students who need to be home for an extended period of time due to quarantining or isolating. This is not for students to come and go at will. When your elementary aged child needs to distance learn, please let the classroom teacher know a day ahead of time. This gives the teachers time to get materials together and time for you to pick up materials for the students. When your junior high/high school aged child needs to learn from home, please call the office so we can alert the teachers for attendance taking purposes. Thank you.

Daily Day-maker Movement Week One: #madeyousmile
Don’t get so absorbed with your own life that you fail to look up. When we intentionally
look up - notice - act, we are given the opportunity to be necessary to someone - to be their blessing, to be there day-maker. When we choose to live our lives from that lens, we become bigger on the inside, which makes us better on the outside.
Let’s intentionally create a ripple effect that lifts hearts.
Scattered all over Stanley this week will be “made you smile” gifts for the person finding it and for that person to share. The Stanley Rec and the Mountrail Country Health Foundation will kick off the week. Each class in the elementary and high school will be working together to scatter the smiles as the week progresses.
Nobody will really remember anything about you except the imprint you choose to make on them.
Intentionally Look Up...Notice....Act.
One simple act can change the tone of someone’s day, or even life.

Essler's 7th Life Science launched into the Characteristics of Life today with a little prank. Introduced them to Sewer Lice. They observed and came up with reasons why they're living. They got so excited/disgusted that they went to Google and that's when they figured it out! #igotthemhooked
*Sewer Lice are just swollen raisins in Squirt, the carbonation moved the raisins around. So, is moving really a characteristic of life...?

A message from the Music Department:
Unfortunately, due to covid-19 and the aerosol studies that were put out by the University of Colorado Boulder, the Music Department and Administration for Stanley Public Schools have sadly decided to postpone the planning of Fall/Winter concerts until Spring Semester. We've exhausted all possibilities for alternatives, and this is the conclusion we've come to. We will be posting a Music Department video later this semester to show the community all that we are currently working on in the classroom in the place of regular concert music. We are so happy that we are a part of such a supportive, patient, positive, and kind community - we excitedly await the day that we can get back to normal music activities.
