Second graders in Mrs. Kruizenga's class explored the different properties of materials used for clothing, such as texture, flexibility, and absorbency. In the activity, Mad Hatter, students use this information to design and build a hat that protects them from the Sun. #handsonlearning #trojanpride

Students in the Ag and Tech departments have spent some time getting creative for the first quarter. Students in Ms. Knutson's wildlife class built their very own fishing rods while students in Mr.Keenlance's welding classes designed fishing lures from recycled material . Students were able to test out their equipment Friday while fishing at Black Hawk Park in De Soto.

Congratulations to North Crawford Sophomores Sarah Bransky, Blake Zirk, and Nathan Zirk. On Saturday these students participated in the UW-Eau Claire High School Honors Band. They had the opportunity to rehearse and learn from guest conductors, music faculty, and current music students from UW-Eau Claire. The day culminated with a concert at the Pablo Center at the Confluence in downtown Eau Claire. Congrats to these talented Trojan musicians. #TrojanPride

Hello North Crawford families. We understand there are some frustrations from families regarding food service here at North Crawford. Please understand that similar to many of our area grocery stores, convenience stores, restaurants, and other food service establishments, the food shortages and supply chain challenges are directly impacting our food service program here at North Crawford. You may have noticed these shortages yourself when you go grocery shopping. Whether it's a shortage in bread products, meat products, or milk, there are going to be times when we're forced to make adjustments to our breakfast and lunch menus. This may result in substitutions of food products, or even elimination of certain products. We continue to seek out local and regional partnerships to assist us with our food supply issues, but those are relatively limited in scope. Our food service staff continues to strive to put good, healthy food in front of our kids each day. We appreciate your understanding and support.
~Brandon Munson, Superintendent

So excited for this project to finally come to fruition. A conversation that started a decade ago was completed this fall. North Crawford has a brand new track and field synthetic rubber surface. We’re a little biased, but we think it looks amazing. Can’t wait to see our athletes competing on it this spring. GO TROJANS!! #TrojanPride

Good Evening NC families, a note from the school nurse:
A GI illness (stomach flu) is currently making its way through our families in the district as we have had several students out the past few days of school. It appears to last only a day or so but appears to quite contagious. We have not received any lab confirmed diagnosis but it presents very similar to the norovirus. GI viral illnesses are spread by contact not respiratory droplet, meaning that in order to get sick you need to get the virus in your mouth. Our maintenance crew is working hard to complete extra cleaning on high touch areas. We want to remind families that our return policy for students with diarrhea/vomiting/fever of unknown cause is the symptoms need to be resolved for 24 hours before they can return to school. Meaning if your student vomited during the evening, they need to stay home that following day. According to the WI DHS, if it is norovirus, they recommend returning 48 hours after symptoms as an infected individual may still pass the virus up to 48 hours after symptoms end. Also, the use of soap and water is recommended as hand sanitizers are not as effective against norovirus. As always, contact your medical provider with any questions or concerns. Attached is a link to the WI DHS for more information on the norovirus: https://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/foodborne/norovirus.htm
