Red Ribbon Week Dress Up Days


National Principals Month honors principals for their significant impact on the success and well-being of our students. Join us as we celebrate all our principals throughout October.


On 10/7/22 the sophomore class participated in the Respect Retreat that Youth Frontiers facilitated, along with approximately 22 junior and senior mentors. It was a day full of high-energy, activities, presentations, music, small group discussions, sharing and follow-up. It was really impactful to see some of the students be vulnerable and speak up with their peers around the "campfire" setting at the end of the day to share their experiences thus far in high school.
Some key learning objectives of the Respect Retreat are to:
Help students realize they matter, others matter and what they do matters.
Understand that disrespectful behavior is harmful and engage bystanders to stand up.
Identify ways to improve the culture of respect in your school and community.
We sincerely appreciate the Ellsworth Community School District Foundation for their continued support and the Excell Grant, without their generous support and continued advocacy for this program this day would not be possible for our students.


The Fab Lab has created these cute build your own pumpkins. A fun craft for young or old.

Spring Break 2024!!!
Experience a wide range of history, artistic achievement, and dramatic natural scenery.In city after city, see how buildings become works of art, from the Sistine Chapel to the Florence Duomo, from Neuschwanstein Castle to the Residenz in Munich. Outside the cities, Austria’s scenic Tyrol region proves that nature inspires as much awe as even the most impressive cities.
