🌟 3rd Grade Cultural Experience! 🌟
Third graders from across the district gathered at Trempealeau Elementary for a special cultural learning event! They enjoyed engaging presentations by George Greendeer, Bethany Redbird, and Paula Cleveland from the Ho-Chunk Nation.
Students explored the rich history and vibrant culture of the Ho-Chunk people — and even got to play a traditional Ho-Chunk dice game! 🎲✨
Thank you to our wonderful presenters for sharing their knowledge and traditions with our students. What an unforgettable experience! 🌿❤️






🎉 Second graders across the district wrapped up their learning about Hmong culture with an incredible hands-on experience led by Mrs. Yang! Students got to try on traditional clothing, hats, and jewelry from different Hmong tribes, create their own Hmong hats, and even taste delicious traditional Hmong egg rolls! ✨ A huge thank you to Mrs. Yang and the students who helped make this a fun and memorable experience — our second graders had an amazing time! 💛











🌿🐦 Our second graders have been exploring the outdoors all year, with a special focus on birds — and recently, they got an unforgettable visit from River Valley Raptors and a Peregrine Falcon! 🦅✨ What an amazing experience to see these incredible creatures up close and deepen their learning about the natural world! 💚
