October Tribe Students of the month! Congratulations!
A former student of her stopped by from Culinary College to speak with her current students. She was so proud of Blake Geerts!
Our amazing Pre-K students who created a character from a book using a pumpkin. These are amazing! https://flipgrid.com/68cbd875
Mrs. Geerts homeroom had 100% participation today. We had some great costumes as kids dressed up to "Say Boo to Drugs."
Congratulations to Lance Reicks who made it into Iowa All State Choir!
Reminder: today is one hour early dismissal due to the parent and teacher conferences. Tomorrow there will be no school.
Mrs. ten Hoeve's homeroom was one of 4 groups yesterday with 100% participation in teaming up to say no against drugs. Nice Job everyone.
Art teacher, Lorraine Dunagan, brightens up the middle school hallways and student and staff through her colorful and positive messaging! #NHtribe @DunaganLorraine
Using their Bodily Kinesthetic intelligence, students in Jamie Ohrt’s Biology class, move to spaces in the room to identify what their strongest intelligence is based on Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences. Peers gain insight on one another #NHtribe @jlquass
Keeping high schoolers fit, Caleb Ciavarelli has his PE class shooting hoops #NHtribe
I am so impressed with the knowledge that Mrs. Quirk's homeroom had on Norman Borlaug and the green revolution. Students were able to speak on genetics, cross breeding, and how he was able to help countries around the world fight off famine. I'm super impressed that everyone also found someone to dress alike with during today's Red Ribbon Dress up day. Saying no to Drugs Together.

A couple weeks ago we teased a picture of a pretty cool package that we have received at New Hampton Middle School. Today is the day we tell you what it is! Through a program with the U.S. Navy, Mr. Rude was able to obtain a small piece of the USS Arizona! The Arizona was famously sunk on December 7th, 1941 during the attack on Pearl Harbor. Chickasaw County had two residents make the ultimate sacrifice aboard the ship. We plan to put the relic on display in the middle school, with some of our middle school students helping to curate and design the display.
If anyone would like to help out, the curation team is looking for stories and information regarding Chickasaw County connections to the Pearl Harbor events. Additionally, we are interested in including other artifacts that help create context and connection between Pearl Harbor, the USS Arizona, and Chickasaw County/New Hampton Middle School. If you have artifacts that you are willing to donate or loan to NHMS that are related to Pearl Harbor, Paul Johanns, William Ball, or WW2 Navy, we would be honored to display it and tell it's story.
Check out the New Hampton Tribune tomorrow for a story with even more details.
