Winterset Junior High students are putting their critical thinking and innovative thinking skills to the test!

In Mrs. Kerr's class, students have been coding their own drones. This project is a fantastic example of authentic learning and helps students develop problem-solving abilities that are crucial for future success.

Thank you, Mrs. Kerr, for leading this great work!

Mrs. Kerr's 8th graders are doing incredible work! Using the Scrum Project Management Process, they are tackling complex projects and sharpening two key Profile of a Graduate skills:

Innovative Thinker: They're learning to solve problems in new and creative ways.

Collaborator: They're mastering how to work together as a team to achieve a common goal.

It's amazing to see them taking charge of their learning and preparing for the future!

Passion is in the Air at Winterset Junior High!

We believe learning goes beyond the classroom, and our Passion Activities are proof! This week, our students dove deep into their interests alongside dedicated teachers and staff. We saw incredible engagement, from coding to community service, art to athletics.

The halls were buzzing with excitement as students explored new skills, connected with peers, and built strong relationships with their teachers. These activities are more than just hobbies—they're a chance for our students to discover their passions and develop a stronger sense of community.

A huge thank you to our staff for leading these enriching sessions and to our amazing students for bringing their enthusiasm and energy! What a great way to kick off the year!

What an incredible day for Winterset Junior High! 🎉

Today, we took our entire student body and staff to Wildwood Hills Horse Ranch for a day dedicated to building relationships, creating connections, and reinforcing what it means to be the Best Junior High in Iowa.

Our students were amazing, tackling a variety of hands-on activities including High Ropes, Archery, Lake Activities, Horseback Riding, and Field Sports. They also participated in informational sessions to learn more about our school community and what we stand for.

A huge shoutout to everyone who made this day possible!

The Women's Giving Circle of Madison County for their generous support of this initiative.

Wildwood Hills Ranch for being the perfect host.

And a special thank you to our incredible teachers, staff, and board members for their hard work and dedication.

We are so proud of our students for their energy and participation! It was truly a day to remember.
