Welding students at NBAHS said "thank you" to Airgas this week! NBAHS applied for and received a $5,000 grant from Airgas to purchase a new multi-process welder, a welding coupon bend tester, and a large handful of other supplies used in the shop.

Thanks to the City of North Branch, Chisago County SHIP, the NBPD and the NBFD, and all the students and parents for joining us this morning for a rather brisk Walk and Roll to School! It seems like the event gets a bit bigger every time and it's great to see so many faces familiar from previous events.
Today we celebrated the completion of the CR30 project, including new sidewalk from Maple St. to the library, and new crosswalks across CR30, made possible through Safe Routes to School funding doggedly pursued by the city. Many thanks to Community Development Director Nate Sondrol for his work to secure planning and construction funds!

A tip of the cap to these four students in Autos 3! Eli K., Caleb O., Grant L., and Anthony S. are using the skills learned in class to make repairs to trikes from Sunrise.
