Recycling at PCHS
Mrs. Kunze's Transition Skills class has been learning about the importance of recycling, what materials can and cannot be recycled both nationally and locally, what happens to materials when we recycle, recycling contamination, and the difference between plastic numbers and which are safe to reuse, The students wanted to share what they learned and decided to work to help improve recycling rates in the high school by creating a bright eye-catching display for the recycling receptacle in the student commons. They worked together to cut, laminate and design their own layout for the display. The students would like you to remember that Pine County now accepts all clean plastics #1-7. Happy recycling!
28th Annual Spelling Bee
The winner of the 28th Annual District Spelling Bee was 7th grader Anthony Bergeron. Anthony will go on to represent Pine City Public Schools at the Regional Bee in Sartell on February 5th. Good luck Anthony! Thank you to all the students and staff who came out to support the 18 spellers who competed in the Spelling Bee.
University of Minnesota Field Trip
On Tuesday, Mr. Allen's POL 1001 Political Science class went to The University of Minnesota for their annual field day. The student's final for the class this year was to research a current Supreme Court case. The students presented their findings on field day.
The Daily Grind
Students from Mrs. Wimmer's Career Readiness Class recently started a Coffee Cart business for Staff at the High School called The Daily Grind. For the Holidays, they really put their skills to work. Along with selling coffee, baking and selling treats to staff, they also sold Hot Chocolate to students during lunch. The students are learning skills such as team work, budgeting, interpersonal skills, time management and much more.
Innovation is defined as “the process of making changes to something established by introducing something new.” Innovation can be trying a new instructional strategy, a new web tool, or an innovative way of collaborating with others. Congratulations to Amanda Wimmer for being selected as a Dragon Instructional Innovator!
The Dragon Instructional Innovator Award is funded, in part, by Pine Dragons PTO. The PTO would like to thank all teachers for their hard work.
