Gym Capacity Update:
The Governor has moved the entire state down to yellow meaning we can have up to 350 fans for a game, which is a very rare occurrence. This means we welcome all fans and passes are not needed to attend our home games but remember, we are still required to wear masks by NDHSAA and the Governor. Please follow this mandate when attending.
For away games, some schools have not switched their capacity level; we will do our best to keep parents informed if a school is still only allowing two people per player.
Phyne Photography will be here on Thursday, January 14 at 1:00 p.m. to take Junior High Boys Basketball pictures.
Elementary parents, please take a look at these lost and found items. If you recognize any of them, pick them up at the office.
Happy New Year! Just a reminder, school resumes on TUESDAY, January 5th. Enjoy the last few days of break!
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Brandon & Angela Becker and their four children whose house burnt down two nights ago. An account at Security First Bank in New Salem has been set up for the family.

“HOLSTEIN HIGH-FIVE”
New Salem-Almont High School's second nine-weeks Holstein High-Five was another success. We had 49 students (23 MS and 26 HS) earn a “High-Five” for the second quarter of the school year.
Out of these 49 students, we drew one Middle School student and one High School student for the Holstein “High-Five” student of the quarter. They received a gift card. Congratulations to our 2nd Quarter winners:
High School: Morgan Stang Middle School: Gavin Engwicht
