This is the final week to bring in your money for our Pennies for Patients campaign in Ogema! Our goal is to raise $2,019 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society! The grade that raises the most money wins a popcorn and pop party! Thank you for your support! :)

Last week, Mrs. Haverkamp's 4th graders taught Miss Allen's kindergartners a lesson about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his message of kindness. We looked at and opened brown and white shelled eggs and compared them to how humans also look different on the outside but, on the inside, are the same and all want, need, and deserve love and respect. Thank you, 4th graders for your buddy friendship and leadership; you're going to do great things. ♡

School and busses will be two hours late for the Waubun-Ogema-White Earth School District tomorrow due to the winter storm causing hazardous driving conditions.

There was a car accident on the highway that delayed bus 3 this afternoon. The bus was not involved in the accident, but it did cause the route be running 10-15 minutes late. Students are safe but will be home later than anticipated.

Please make sure students have dressed appropriately for the dangerously cold weather. Boots, mittens, gloves, warm jackets and even snow pants are appropriate. We have drivers reporting students waiting for the bus in t-shirts and light sweatshirts. We apologize for the confusion caused by the previous post. No children will be left in the cold. It is possible in extreme circumstances, as mentioned above, a student may be sent back into the house to get dressed in winter gear and end up having to be driven in by parents. There are no busses built to keep a student warm all the way to school who is dressed for summer in this weather. We can not delay entire routes and keep children on the rest of the route in the cold even longer because a few are making no attempt to be prepared. We need to work together to keep our children safe and dressed to match the weather. Once again, these are rare occasions and we apologize for the confusion. We do want every child to be safe. Please contact the School Office if you need winter weather gear. Superintendent Weber

Seniors, senior and baby pictures are DUE next Friday. Make arrangements to get these to Ms. Baker.
