We are meeting with area businesses today to discuss how we can partner to provide more relevant work experiences throughout high school for our students. I’m excited to see where this will go!
Our team had a great experience the past few days working with Transcend, visiting innovative schools, and thinking about how we can bring more learner-centered experiences to our schools.
Dustin Hager (School Board President) received the Barb Norby Award and scholarship from Alexis Baxley, Director of North Dakota School Boards Association for his exceptional leadership while serving our school district. We appreciate Dustin's dedication and leadership at RPS!

Well, 3 of the 4 appear to be excited. 🤣 We had a great turnout tonight celebrating the improvements made at our elementary school. It’s such a beautiful learning space! Thank you to our community for believing in this project!
Our Rugby/TGU TLA members are joining with other TLAs at UJ to present their action research today. I’m excited for them to share their research and journey with others!
Congrats Mrs. Mattson! We are pretty fortunate to have Andee serving our school community. I'm always impressed with her devotion to music education within our schools! Thank you and good luck!
Thankful for these two ladies for their support and dedication to the students of Rugby Public Schools for the last 9 years! They were great leaders and always put students first. We will miss them. Thank you Carlie and Kris!
That space between what the educator thinks is important and what interests the learner is so critically important in establishing relevance for the student. I’m enjoying Disruptive Thinking by Sheninger.
