Congrats to Mrs. Pessenda, Mrs. Yaroscak and the class of 2033!! During the month of March, the 4th, 5th, & 6th grade students, participated in an Attendance Challenge. Every day the students showed up and stayed all day, earned their grade a point! Percentages were calculated weekly, and the grade with the best percentage earned extra time to shop at the Bluestreak Pride Store. At the end of three weeks, the grade with the most wins was declared the Attendance Champions and earned a Bluestreak Pride ticket worth 10 tickets; their teachers received a certificate to display. This challenge was to encourage regular attendance. It teaches students the importance of commitment and accountability for their education. Turning attendance into a friendly competition can make school more enjoyable and engaging for students. Challenges can promote teamwork and camaraderie among students, teachers, and all staff, creating a sense of belonging. All students did an excellent job engaging themselves and their peers in March. Week 3: 3/24-3/27, FINAL RESULTS: Third place: 5th grade at 88.9% Second place: 6th grade at 92.2% First place: 4th grade at 94.5% Keep it up Bluestreaks!! #BluestreakLeaders

Athletic/Activities Director Vake named 7A AD of the Year! I am honored and humbled to announce that I was named MNiAAA Region 7A Athletic/Activities Director of the Year for the 2024-2025 School Year. I am so thankful to my colleagues who support me in this job and for voting for me to receive this honor. Chisholm High School is very special to me. I grew up, went to school here, and graduated from Chisholm and to hold this amazing job as a graduate of the school means the world to me. Chisholm is the "Heartbeat of the Iron Range" and that Heartbeat begins with the Chisholm School District. There is nothing better than beginning and ending my day working with the students and staff in the schools as well as the amazing community that we have here in Chisholm. The businesses want nothing more than to support the students and the vision of our school. I want to send a heartfelt thank you to my colleagues for helping me with the job (this is only my 3rd year as AD), to the community for the support that you give to me and the school district on a daily basis, and to the amazing students who come and visit me each day and who truly make Chisholm High School Athletics and Activities the best in the business. Being a Chisholm Bluestreak truly means the world to me. I am so excited about the future for Chisholm and I plan to be right here, in Chisholm, MN, for decades to come! Thank you all! AD Vake
