Robotics at State!
Robotics made school history! This is the second time they have qualified for the State Tournament, but the first time they have attended in person! The last time they qualified was during the pandemic in 2020 where teams had to compete virtually.
The PC Golden Pirates robotics program concluded a successful season at the FIRST Tech Challenge State Tournament, highlighted by the Marooned Golden Pirates earning second place for the REACH Award in community outreach. Individual excellence was also on display as Chris Onipede of the Skeleton Crew team secured one of only two statewide Stratasys coding scholarships for his programming skills.

MATILDA The Musical
Book by DENNIS KELLY
Music & Lyrics by TIM MINCHIN
Orchestrations and Additional Music – Chris Nightingale
Matilda is a little girl with astonishing wit, intelligence and psychokinetic powers. She's unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher Miss Honey. During her first term at school, the two forge a bond as Miss Honey begins to recognize and appreciate Matilda's extraordinary personality. Matilda's school life isn't completely smooth sailing, however – the school's mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves to punish those who don't abide by her rules. But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts, and could be the school pupils' saving grace!
Community Service Varsity Letter
Osseo Area Schools is pleased to announce that all district high schools will begin offering a varsity letter for community service beginning this spring. This new opportunity was created by students to recognize and celebrate sustained, meaningful service to our schools and broader community. This community service varsity letter is designed to be accessible to all students, provide multiple pathways to serve, and honor the impact students make when they commit their time, skills, and leadership to causes they care about.
