We have had a Bigfoot sighting at Mahnomen High School! Ms. Bingham's class has been searching high and low. Here is the 1st clue they got.
Clue One:
Bigfoot Sighting Alert!
Bigfoot has been spotted, and he is chilling somewhere high!
He's not in a classroom where lessons fly.
He's got plenty of swag, a smile that shines,
And somehow he always knows when the students are doing just fine!
The kids all love him-that's your biggest clue!
He helps, he listens, and knows what to do.
If you want to find this legendary best,
Look up high to who can't be beat!

Pie a Coach for a Cause!
Our Mahnomen Waubun Cheer Team is raising donations for the Randy Shaver Cancer Research and Community Fund at Friday’s football game in Waubun against Polk County West!
At the game, you’ll find donation jars featuring photos of our football coaches. Drop your donation into the jar of the coach you’d most like to see get PIED!
The coach—or coaches—with the most money in their jar will get a pie to the face at the end of the game!
Money raised will support cancer research right here in Minnesota, along with programs that provide direct support to individuals and families affected by cancer.
Bring some cash, pick your coach, and help our cheer team raise money for a great cause!

🧡 Orange Shirt Day: A Meaningful Mile
Our students, staff, families, and community came together for a Meaningful Mile Walk in recognition of Orange Shirt Day and Every Child Matters.
The morning began with breakfast and beverages, followed by the Opichi Drum Group, before participants took to the Mahnomen School track for the walk.
Seeing so many people wearing orange and walking together was a meaningful reminder of the importance of honoring the experiences of Indigenous children, families, and communities and recognizing that Every Child Matters.
Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make this morning meaningful. A special thank you to the Mahnomen American Indian Education Program, Mahnomen Tribal Community Council, Opichi Drum Group, and everyone who helped organize and support the event.
