Introducing Yondr Pouches at Our School!
We're excited to announce the implementation of Yondr pouches to secure student devices during the academic day. This initiative aims to create a focused and distraction-free learning environment for everyone.
Why keep cell phones out of the classroom?
- Increased Focus: Without the constant buzz of notifications, students can concentrate better on their studies and engage more deeply in classroom activities. Studies show that it takes 20 minutes to refocus after a disruption from a phone.
- Enhanced Social Interaction: Students are encouraged to communicate face-to-face, building stronger interpersonal skills and friendships.
- Decreased Bullying: By removing phones, we aim to reduce instances of cyberbullying, helping to create a safer and more supportive school environment.
Each Yondr pouch is provided to students to secure their phones at the start of the day. Please note that if a pouch is lost or damaged, there is a $30 replacement fee.
Let's work together to make this school year a productive and enriching experience for everyone! #FocusOnLearning #YondrPouches #DistractionFreeLearning #StopBullying #LayingTheTracks #MightyMoguls #FullSteamAhead

🎓 **Celebrating Senior Success: Mackenzie Hollenbeck** 🎓
Join us as we continue our celebration of our seniors, spotlighting their achievements and revisiting significant events from the school year.
**Senior Spotlight #6: Mackenzie Hollenbeck**
Mackenzie Hollenbeck, a talented actor at heart, chose to step into the role of director for her Senior Project. She directed and produced a one-act play, which she took to the Panhandle One-Act Competition in Hemingford, Nebraska—a contest Edgemont hasn't entered since the '90s. Competing against six other schools, Mackenzie led our team to a commendable fifth place, just a point shy of fourth and tied with sixth. The judges were particularly impressed with our performance, favoring it over the sixth place due to its quality. Back home, Mackenzie also showcased her play during the Student Council’s Burgers & Bingo night, drawing a large, enthusiastic crowd. After dedicating over thirty hours to leading practices, creating the set, and coordinating with Hemingford staff, Mackenzie hopes her efforts will revive the tradition of one-act plays in Edgemont for years to come. Bravo, Mackenzie! 🎭🏆
🏃 **Throwback Highlight: Sports Opportunities** 🏃
This year was exciting for Edgemont sports as well! We brought back Cross Country and recently hosted a Middle School Track Meet at the beautiful Cody Barker Memorial Track and Field. These developments are just a few examples of the fantastic sports opportunities we provide, which play a crucial role in building character and community among our students. We're proud to continue offering such vibrant and diverse programs.
Stay tuned for more senior spotlights and cherished memories as we celebrate our students and their remarkable journeys!

🎓 **Celebrating Senior Success: Landon Heisler** 🎓
Our senior celebration continues, highlighting the impressive achievements of our graduates and reflecting on special moments from this past school year.
**Senior Spotlight #5: Landon Heisler**
Landon Heisler dedicated his Senior Experience to volunteering at the Cheyenne River Animal Hospital, where he gained hands-on experience in veterinary care. Throughout his time at the clinic, Landon undertook various responsibilities, from managing inventory to maintaining cleanliness. A pivotal moment for him was assisting in the surgical procedure of a dog’s leg amputation, where he prepared the surgical site and operated a laser to seal the wound post-operation. Landon’s commitment and hard work have provided him with invaluable insights into the veterinary field. Well done, Landon! 🐾🏥
🎓 **Throwback Highlight: Educational Opportunities for Our Community** 🎓
This year, we also focused on extending learning opportunities beyond our students to include parents, guardians, and community members. Our series of talks covered important topics such as the science and dangers of addiction and internet safety. These sessions have been instrumental in fostering a well-informed and engaged community, reflecting our commitment to holistic education.
Stay tuned for more senior spotlights and throwback highlights as we continue to celebrate the end of a fantastic school year!
