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. Trikes are an important tool for the Sunrise SPED department. They help students develop motor skills, build muscle, improve coordination, and provide low impact exercise. Skol gents!

Congratulations to Hannah Wirtz (10th grade) and Logen Schedlbauer (11th)! They were recognized this week as the 5th and 6th NBAHS students to complete the Ford ACE program.
Representatives of Anderson Koch Ford, Ford corporate, school staff, and family were on hand to celebrate Hannah and Logen's accomplishment. Ford presented each with a DeWalt impact wrench and noted that NBAHS has had more students complete the ACE program than any school in the region and, perhaps, the entire midwest.
SKOL! to these enterprising Vikings!
