What a season! Floodwood Volleyball did not end the season the way they wanted to, but they made the Floodwood community proud with a competitive and fun fall of watching their talents on the volleyball court. A shoutout also to the students, families and community members that followed this team all season long. The support was amazing - from a fire truck escort leaving for their final game to the student cheering section - the love for this team was evident! Polar Pride - Go Bears!

Thursday, October 30th, Floodwood students were visited by two guest speakers, Nichole Arbour and Dan Gile from SBDC (Small Business Development Center). SBDC is a resource for small business owners that provide free or low-cost counseling, training and other assistance to help small businesses start, grow and sustain.

Nichole and Dan spoke with our K-12 students on how art integrates with business. Students created logos for businesses and the older students even created pitches for a new business idea.

Thank you Nichole and Dan!
