A dozen MNCS students made Owatonna their classroom last Friday. They toured the State School and Orphanage Museum in the morning, followed by the Louis Sullivan designed National Farmer's Bank in the afternoon. It was a powerful day of learning in Steele County.

Last Friday, both Critter and Frog students had another special guest come and visit with the class! Students asked the Veteran all sorts of questions like "why did you become a soldier", "what was it like" as well as "what did you eat" and "what was your specific job in the military"? These recent visits hold a lot of meaning and students were eager to learn more about their service and experiences. Thank you to those individuals for coming in and speaking with us! To those who served and those who continue to serve our nation, we honor you. Thank you!

Woodland Critter Students recently had some special guests come in to speak to their class about their experiences in the military. As part of our American Symbols unit, students were able to ask them questions, listen to their stories, hear what it was like, see the uniforms they wore, and view some pictures they shared with us. It was an honor to have these Veterans visit our school and we thank them for their service to our country.
