During the week of April 20th - April 24th the School District of Crandon was scheduled to host the 2020 NLC Middle School Art Show. 

Due to the mandated closures, we were unable to do that, so we  decided to go virtual.
Please take a moment and sit back and enjoy some of the talent of our students.

BIG Shout-out to our Awesome Students  #CardinalPride

The Wisconsin High School Forensics Association challenged the students to participate in an online competition by uploading the videos of their performances to Youtube and sharing the link with the association.   For your viewing entertainment, the School District of Crandon presents our junior, Chase Marshall. He is performing a solo piece of dark comedy. Have you ever wondered what happens when you send your child of questionable behavior off to boarding school? Let's find out in this satirical piece.

Health Tip #24

Find the lesson. 

This whole crisis can seem sad, senseless, and at times, avoidable. 

When psychologists work with trauma, a key feature to helping someone work through said trauma is to help them find the potential positive outcomes they can effect, the meaning that can come out of destruction. 
What can each of us learn here, in big and small ways, from this crisis? What needs to change in ourselves, our homes, our communities, our nation, and our world?
