We are so thankful and grateful to our amazing staff! 18 staff members gathered at The Outreach Program of Brainerd Lakes and prepared over 8,000 meals in just two nights. These meals are coming back to our district and being distributed to students and families with food insecurities, especially over the holiday break.
A big shout-out to the Crosby Fire Department for being the financial sponsor! This couldn't have happened without you.
We are hoping to make this a yearly happening and look forward to adding more staff each year! #grateful #thankful #gocigo

Mr. Wood and Mr. Schafbuch took their students to Central Lakes College. While they were there, the students were able to practice welding and learn about CLC’s welding program with the instructors. They also toured CLC's Graphic Design program and tried their hand at wrapping a license plate.
Thank you, CLC, for the opportunity to meet and visit with your welding and graphic design programs!
Each student, kindergarten through 6th grade, wrote what they were thankful for on a leaf for the gratitude tree! #grateful
