One Jump for One Veteran by Mrs POSTAL CUSTOMER Non-profit Org. US Postage Paid Baudette, MN 56623 Permit No. 31 ECRWSS “In pursuit of excellence and opportunities” Winter 2018-2019 I Walked Today! Shannon Hayes Every morning the elementary students are encouraged to walk in the gym from 7:45-8:00. This is a time where students can socialize with friends and get some exercise in before the day starts. When 8:00 arrives, the walking supervisors hand out walking tickets to each student who walked. The class- room teachers keep track of how many tickets were received for the month. At the end of the month, the class who has the highest percentage of walkers wins the prize. The prize varies each month. Last month it was a free hour of swimming in the school pool. The gym is full every morning with students ranging from Kindergarten to 6th grade! It's so fun watching all of the elementary interact with each other! One Jump for one Veteran By Mrs. Krause Mrs. Krause's 5th grade class spent the month of November jump roping for Veterans. This was a way to remember and think about all of the sacrifices and time spent away from families during the holidays. We worked hard and counted every single jump signifying one veteran. We learned there are approximately 300,000 veterans in Minnesota. Our goal was to jump in support of as many as we could. I am proud to report these 16 students jumped over 171,722 swings of their ropes. Thank you to all the military servicemen and woman around Minnesota and the World. We honor you!

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.
