Three weeks of hard work and messy fun! Our high school art students just wrapped up their 3D mask project.
From the initial planning and design to the hands-on papier-mâché building and final painting, it was quite the journey. It was a blast to see them tap into their childhood nostalgia, with many students bringing their favorite cartoon characters to life. We are so proud of their dedication and creativity! Take a closer look at their projects on Mrs. Tassler’s website: https://sites.google.com/view/mrstassler/mask










ABO School was fortunate to attend the SDMEA Elementary Chorus Festival on March 2 in Mobridge. Students spent the day singing with students from 6 other schools and presented a concert later in the afternoon. It was a great day !

February is Career Technical Education (CTE) month. We are celebrating career readiness learning with programs that help students build real skills for real careers. Mr. Gittings "shop" classes have been working hard doing engineering, drafting and design, woodworking, and welding. Students also gain valuable problem solving, critical thinking, and employability practice with hands on projects.

Best of luck to Cateri as she represents Sully Buttes in the girls wrestling featured match!

Swords in school? Kindergarten used our "steady beat swords" to keep the beat as we practice for our spring concert. Movement and music are so important. Pool noodles and shiny tape can go a long way!
