Today was an enriching day for Mrs. Hammer's Criminal Justice class as they stepped inside the McLeod County Court House!
Their journey through the legal system included insights into the jury process, observing court sessions, and engaging with remarkable individuals like Karen Messner, Jenna Feltmann, Judge Winters, Judge Maher, and Dianna Armstrong.
Huge thanks to Mrs. Susan Bruegemeier for orchestrating this invaluable experience. Students were grateful for the opportunity to deepen their understanding of justice firsthand!

Our Kindergarteners are exploring the world of weather!
In our STEAM room, they're putting on their meteorologist hats and learning all about the fascinating science behind the skies.
These tiny forecasters will blow you away with their knowledge!
