Just a friendly reminder of what our January Calendar looks like!
100th WIN
On Saturday, January 16th, senior, Garret Eiynck recorded his 100th win with the Mahnomen/Waubun Thunderbirds. He pinned the wrestler from Border West (Wheaton-Herman-Clinton-Graceville) in the first period. “I’m just glad we got to wrestle this year.” Garret said. “It was really hard ending the year last year with 99 wins.”
Garret has become the 18th winningest wrestler in Mahnomen/Waubun wrestling. “He still has a whole season to go” coach Short said. “If he has a good year, and we do not have any cancellations, he could move up to the 6-7th spot.”
Congratulations Garret.

Jaelyn was chosen as Student of the Month. Her teacher, Mrs. Oertwich says, “I chose Jaelyn as my student of the month for December. Jaelyn is responsible, gets her work done as soon as possible, and asks for help when needed. She often asks for extra work and wanted work to do over Christmas break. Jaelyn approaches everything with a positive attitude and prides herself on her work. Not only does Jaelyn do her best and challenge herself academically, she consistently displays empathy to her classmates when they need extra academic support and encourages them when they are down. Keep being a great leader, Jaelyn.”
Jaelyn is most thankful for fishing with her family: Daddy, Mommy, Dustin, Erin, Jordan, Kimber, and Kase. She said Dustin catches the biggest fish and she catches the smallest fish. Jaelyn’s favorite part of school is playing hide and seek at recess with her friends. She also loves riding on the scooter in gym class. Jaelyn loves to play Subway Surfers on her iPad and likes to play dolls at home. Jaelyn can do cartwheels, somersaults, swing on the bar, walk on the balance beam, and the splits at gymnastics class! Wow!
Jaelyn you are amazing!!! We love you at Ogema Elementary!
