All are invited to the American Indian Education Program meeting tomorrow, Tuesday, December 20th at 2 PM. We are excited to have a "Hotshot"  Wild Land Firefighter crew Supervisor joining us, he has over 15 years experience in with this elite group of firefighters and will share his career journey and experiences with us.  Our other presenter is from the local Shakopee Mdewakonton Tribe and SHE is also a firefighter and manages their  land resources dept.  Both are highly skilled and trained, certified EMTs and Native! If you missed last week's IGH firefighter session or are interested in learning more about a career as a firefighter, you can sign-up with Ms. Jaco in the Counseling Office.

Congratulations to the Boys Hockey Team on an impressive 5-4 win over Tartan/North last Thursday night. With the score tied 2-2 at the end of the 2nd period the Spartans took an early 3rd period lead only to find themselves down by a goal with under 5 minutes to play. The Spartans stuck to their game plan and were rewarded with two power play goals in the last 3 minutes! Junior Zach Hilsgen scored a hat trick netting the first three goals of the game and Sr. Defenseman Joey Stanton scored the final two goals to secure the victory! Next home game for the Spartans is this Thursday against SPA. Game times are 5:00/7:00 pm. Go Spartans!

Seniors, the deadline is approaching to order your cap and gown for graduation. Schedule your senior meeting with your counselor so you do not miss this deadline.
