💙 Huskies Give Week is back! 💙

This year is bigger and better than ever, with every school in our district and St. Mary's going WILD about giving!

November 16-20, we will give back in more ways than one with cereal, toys and socks collections plus service projects. AND, Federated Insurance will donate up to $2000 each day as our goals are met! Donations will benefit Community Pathways and The Lighthouse of Southern MN.

📹 Special thanks to the OHS Student Council and Aaron Guzman for the video!

Our Elementary PE staff participated in a full-day Bike MN training in Saint Paul. As we begin to build an elementary bike fleet in Owatonna, the teachers were grateful for the opportunity to learn from colleagues across the state! 🚲

During National School Psychology Week, we thank our school psychologists for the important role they play in supporting the social, emotional and behavioral well-being of our students. Through their compassion and collaboration, they help students overcome challenges, build skills and reach their full potential.

Thank you for for making a difference in the lives of students and families every day!
