Washburn will be hosting a fundraiser at Thursday's basketball double header. Proceeds will go to the Eckroth Family.
4th & 5th grades were engaged in a variety of activities in Library today - Sphero Mini & Sphero Indi robots, puzzles, reading books on Sora, and taking AR quizzes!
Attention of parents of students in grades 4-6: a short survey QR Code was sent home with your child at the end of last week. Please take a few moments to complete the survey if they plan to participate in elementary boys basketball or elementary girls volleyball. This is to ensure we have the numbers to have elementary sports in the spring. If the 4th grade students are needed for numbers, they will be allowed to participate. This survey is also to help determine choosing. The spring elementary sports seasons start in March. If you have any questions, you can contact Mr Jangula at the school john.jangula@underwoodschool.org.

This is a follow up communication on the PowerSchool breach from last week. NDIT has confirmed that our system in Underwood was breached by an outside entity on 12-22-24. The breach included 827 student records, 484 staff records and 115 health records. It is strongly recommended that all students, parents and staff that access Powerschool change your passwords if you have not done so already. We have no further guidance from NDIT at this time. Thank You.

The physics class was challenged with a balanced mobile project before Christmas. Every student accomplished the goal that their "themed" mobile had to stay up and balanced over the break.
