Community Education Update
Meet Megan:
Growing up in a small town community similar to the New Richmond area, I often participated in Community Education programs year-round and saw the benefits these activities have on bringing communities together. I am excited to bring some new ideas to the existing community education programming in order to better serve our school district and community. If you have any feedback or insight as to how we can improve our offerings, please fill out our survey HERE.

Student Update: NRMS
Student Update: Hillside Elementary
During the month of April, Hillside First Graders have been learning about the life cycles of plants and got the opportunity to plant their own flowers. Each student had to fill up their pot with dirt, place the seeds about an inch into the dirt, and water it. This was a great way for students to understand what plants need in order to successfully grow and bloom into a flower. We are currently keeping a plant observation journal, so throughout the next few weeks, the students will continue to monitor what happens. Eventually, they will bring them home to families and share everything they have learned!
