Kindness Week at the elementary continued today with a special performance by the Curt Show. We were able to laugh and giggle together as he taught us that mistakes are really just opportunities to try again. Great job Addie at being an expert juggling assistant! Today's focus was to share some kindness in our community, and we want to thank you for making a difference in our world. :)
Tomorrow is "Hats Off to Kindness," so get your favorite hat ready!

North Dakota Envirothon
Midkota is seeking a five-member team of students grades 9-12 that are interested in participating in the Envirothon May 8-10, 2024, at Crystal Springs located near Medina, ND. Please contact Mr. Black or Mrs. Musland ASAP if you are interested in this great opportunity.
What is the North Dakota Envirothon?
The North Dakota Envirothon is a problem-solving natural resource competition for high school students. Teams are generally associated with a sponsoring school, and usually train the entire school year with their advisor or "coach" in preparation for the annual state-wide competition. Study resources in the fields of soils, aquatics, wildlife, prairie (forestry and rangeland) and a current environmental issue are assembled by natural resource professionals and provided to the teams. Using these resources, students learn the skills of thinking and working as a team to assess natural resource issues affecting the environment. In late spring, each team has the option to select five members and one alternate to compete at the North Dakota State Envirothon Competition

Today Midkota Elementary joined "Team Kindness" and proudly wore some of our favorite team jerseys. We also wrote cards to share what we appreciated about each other, and our Wall of Gratitude continued to grow. <3
Tomorrow we want to "Shine Bright with Kindness," so don't forget to wear your neon apparel.
Just a reminder that the Midkota 4th-6th graders are invited to sing the National Anthem tonight at the basketball game in Glenfield. The attached letter from Mrs. Hoyt went home last week, but just in case, we wanted to put it out there again. :) As with all sporting events, timing can vary, but students should plan to be there by 7 PM.
We had a great 1st day of Kindness Week here at the elementary school. There were definitely some amazingly crazy hair styles and socks! I am so glad that we could be "Crazy about Kindness" together. :) We also are off to a great start on our Wall of Gratitude.
Don't forget to join Team Kindness tomorrow and wear your favorite team's jersey.
