Dalton was chosen as October Student of the Month. His teacher, Mrs. Brininger says, “I chose Dalton as student of the month because he is a ray of sunshine in our distance learning class! He is always excited to join our google meets, he has a positive attitude toward everything, he participates in our activities, (especially the songs), and he completes all of his work on time! He has a kind heart and loves giving people compliments. Way to go, Dalton!”
Dalton is most thankful for giving people the pictures he draws. He draws hearts and “Bendy the Ink Machine” to give to his family and friends.
His favorite part of school is letter tracing because he loves the letters. Right now he is learning the letter “I”.
Dalton has lots of interesting facts about himself. He loves the color black so he can draw his favorite video game. His favorite costume is Bendy and the Ink Machine. He loves Transformers, especially Optimus Prime!
Dalton, you are so appreciated at Ogema Elementary. Keep up the good work!!


Dear Families, Students, and Staff,
We were notified by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) of a lab of a confirmed case of COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) in a member of the Waubun school community with no exposure in our school community. For privacy reasons, we cannot share details about the status of the individual. At this time, they have each been advised to stay home and away from other people (isolate).
We have worked with the MDH to identify those who had close contact with the case, and have communicated with them individually. The risk of exposure for other individuals present in the building on that date is no greater than the risk of contracting the virus in the general community.
If you were not identified to have close contact with the positive case you should still monitor for symptoms of illness, but do not need to stay home unless symptoms develop. If symptoms develop, stay home and consult with your physician to determine if medical evaluation is needed.
We are working closely with MDH to monitor the situation.
If you have questions, contact Carolyn Cossette, School Nurse or Lisa Weber, Superintendent at 218-473-6171.
Thank you for helping to keep our school community safe.

Taryn was chosen October Student of the Month!! Her teacher, Mrs. Bement says, “I chose Taryn because she is punctual about getting her work completed on time and she has excellent class participation. She does all of this with a smile on her face! She brings positive energy to our classroom and shows her Ogema PRIDE each and every day.”
Taryn is most thankful for her family because they feed and take care of her. Her favorite part of school is recess because she plays ‘bats and cats’ with her friends. Taryn has lots of cool tricks! She can do the splits and cartwheels. She can also do front handsprings, fronts slips, and no-hand cartwheels on the trampoline.
Taryn, you are friendly, kind, and full of life! Thank you for being an amazing child!!
