The Chisago County Press has a great story this week on technology being used in NBAPS classrooms:
Sara Ertl's first graders are getting to meet kids their own age from different parts of North America, and they don't even have to leave their classroom at North Branch Primary School. Last week they interacted with students in Alberta, Canada and earlier this school year they spent time with kids in Dallas Texas.
And that's not all!
The Post Review has our hard-working grounds crew on the front page, with a summary of the work and cost associated with snow removal:
To beat back Mother Nature’s average snowfall, crews use up to 14 tons of sand, approximately 1/4 -1/2 ton of salt, and up to 150 gallons of fuel.
For a six-inch snowfall event, that can add up to as much as $1,300, with the expense rising as the snow gets deeper.
In a winter like this, the scenario can be repeated weekly, if not more often as the snow keeps coming and coming.
I hope you enjoy reading these fine examples of what's happening at NBAPS.
