Reminder of elementary track and field day tomorrow at 1:30 pm in Presho. Students do not need to bring backpacks to school tomorrow. Thanks!
The 8th grade science classes had fun making an in-person model of the solar system after calculating the distances scaled down to the size of a football field. Fun fact: if the sizes were proportional to the distances, the sun would be about the size of a golf ball and Pluto would be smaller than a flea egg!
Students of the week from Friday!! Go Raiders!
Mrs. Lebeda did it again! The concert today was outstanding! We are very proud of our Raiders. Shout out to Mr. and Mrs. Muirhead as well! The band was very impressive!

We had a phenomenal guest in the elementary today!!! Frank Waln is an incredibly established Lakota musician and artist who grew up on the Rosebud Reservation. He now resides in Chicago and travels all over the world to share his gift and inspirational message with youth. He was kind enough to plan a trip around visiting our school and we are so grateful! The Lower Brule Elementary fourth graders were able to come over and join us as well! It was a wonderful experience! http://frankwaln.com/
Ladies and gentlemen, our seniors have completed their first 'graduation walk' as the elementary students honored them today!!! They were kind enough to spend time reading to the kindergarteners, so they were celebrated before leaving the building! Congratulations to all, enjoy the week!! We are so proud of each and every one of you!
