4th Grade Interview
We sat down with the fourth grade and this is what they had to say!
SNOWBALL WEEK
February 10-14
FFA
The Battle Lake FFA Chapter celebrated National FFA Week February 23 - 28. They started off the week with a Pie Social on Sunday, February 23 in the school cafeteria. They served around 50 people. At the pie social, members talked to the guests about FFA, agriculture and other topics.
On Tuesday morning, the officer team made breakfast for the school staff and bus drivers. They served pancakes, sausage and fruit. The breakfast was a “thank you” to all the staff that make our school so awesome!
To continue celebrating National FFA week, officers went to the kindergarten rooms and showed them how to make homemade butter.
This spring FFA will be doing their annual petting zoo and other Ag activities. It was decided to switch their usual National FFA week to springtime so the petting zoo and Ag Olympics could be outside and they could conduct "drive your tractor to school day!"

The Mock Trial team won their last regular season trial on February 6, 2020, finishing with a 4-0 record!
