Congrats to our final Bulldog Bravo award winners this school year!!!
The Big East Track Meet and home softball games have been canceled for Friday, May 16th.
The junior high golf meet scheduled for Friday, May 16th at Chester has been canceled.
The Baltic High School’s Ag Structures Technology class has been busy at work in their new Woods shop facility honing their construction and trades skills. The class is made up of seventeen sophomores and juniors, who have shown an interest in developing hands-on skills as well as learning soft skills, which are needed to advance in high-demand technical occupations.
When the Sioux Falls Humane Society expressed the need for dog shelters, we couldn’t help but feel moved to action. Through the generosity of Dell Rapids Lumber Company, the district was able to purchase materials for a greatly reduced rate and build two large dog houses for donation to the Humane Society. The class’s students researched, designed, estimated, and built the structures as part of an end of quarter project for the class. It was an excellent way for students to put into practice some of the concepts that they have been developing throughout the year.
The Big East Conference Track and Field meet has been postponed to Friday, May 16th with Javelin and High Jump starting at 10:00 AM and running events starting at 1:00 PM.
This semester's GRIT Student of the Month award winners celebrated with pizza!!!

Thank you to all of the students, staff, parents, and community members that helped out at the track meet yesterday. So many positive things were said about our track meet and the beautiful weather that we had. Thank you again for all of your help. Trakc meets take a small army of people to run and it can't be successful without the help of all of you, so thank you.
If you are available and want to help as a timer for our Middle School Big East Conference Track Meet on Monday, May 12th at 2:45 pm, I could use people who are willing to help time runners and then help organize runners once they cross the finish line. This will take about 16 to 20 people, all at the finish line, helping. If you are available to help, please let our Activities Director, Edward Clark, know via email at edward.clark@k12.sd.us, and he will add you to his list. Hoping for another successful track meet. Thank you and Go Bulldogs!
Baltic hosts a HS Track Meet on Tuesday, May 6th, and is still looking for help in a coupl ofe areas. If you are available to help with the Long Jump or Discuss we could use a couple of adults around 2:45 pm to help. We could also use general help around 4:00 pm with exchange zones or other field event help. Please reach out as soon as possible if you are available to help with any of these areas to Edward Clark, edward.clark@k12.sd.us
