The woodworking projects are finished for the year!
High school students have had the opportunity to take Finish Carpentry, where they made woodworking projects. Throughout the course, they had a set of projects where they had to carefully plan and learn how to use a multitude of tools including a drill press, miter saw, belt sander, band saw, and table saw. We are very proud of how their projects turned out and we are looking forward to what they will be able to build in the future!

Edgemont School District wishes mothers everywhere Happy Mother’s Day! Mothers are our first teachers. They introduce us to everything and everyone in our world, and it is only through their love that we can trust the world might be alright after all. To all the awesome mom's out there holding down the family fort, we salute you today.

It was a team effort and supported by donations from our great community. Thank you to all who helped make it possible!
We have to cancel our track meet today, unfortunately. Everything is too wet and soggy. We were looking forward to watching everyone compete today, but bring on the rain and the green grass!
We are still planning on a track meet tomorrow! We are confident this rain is going to settle in as soon as we are finished using our beautiful track. We hope to see you there.
There was lots of excitement in the air, as well as the smell of formaldehyde, as the 6th-8th grade Life Science class selected their specimens and began dissecting; frogs, stingrays, fetal pigs, crayfish, grasshoppers, perch, clams, and starfish this week in Mrs. Rhodes' class. This is such a great hands-on learning opportunity for our students and I love their level of engagement, their thought-provoking questions, and hearing students say, "Mrs. Rhodes you've got to come see this"!
Congratulations to Olivia on placing third in the West River Math Contest in advanced math!
Good luck to our high school students competing in the West River Math Contest today!
Our regular school board meeting will be pushed back until 8:00 pm tomorrow (May 8) instead of the regularly scheduled 7:00 pm, so we can all attend and enjoy the ag banquet. Thanks!
