Mr. Janish says
"Yo, all NB 8-12th grade students who plan to be at the Frost Fire gathering; By decree of the Olympian scribes, all scrolls (forms) must be signed and delivered unto the guardians (to the office) by this Wednesday—or be left to wander in the realm of “what could have been.”
(pretty much get your forms in for Frost Fire on time 🤣)

NB Families,
We are seeing a significant increase in illness among both students and staff in our buildings. Confirmed cases of Influenza A, along with other seasonal viruses, are spreading quickly. Common symptoms include a fever of 100°F or higher, headache, and a persistent cough.
If your child has a fever of 100°F or higher, they must stay home. If they develop a fever at school, you will be called to pick them up. Students must be fever-free for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication before returning to school.
Please review the guidance from Pembina County Public Health. If your child sees a doctor, ask for a provider’s note so we can accurately track attendance. While we value strong attendance, keeping illness from circulating is our top priority.
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping North Border Schools healthy!
Here is an updated link and QR code for the upcoming ski school that will be held on February 7. This is for both campuses, grades 8-12.

Upcoming events for Jan. 27-Feb. 1
Could In December, Pembina Honor Society (Tori & Noah) organized a birthday box drive for our local food pantry. Collecting over 400 items total, we celebrated the winning collection teams with a pizza party last week. Thank you to all who helped us support Pembina County Food Pantry!
Opt-Out of Old Blackboard Alerts
If you’ve been receiving calls, texts, or alerts that seem to come from our school’s phone number—especially about lunch notifications—this may be due to Blackboard, our former alert system. Some phone numbers may still be in their system, even though we no longer use it.
To stop these alerts, please refer to the attached image for opt-out instructions. You can call the provided number or opt out when you receive the call (typically around 2:05 PM each day).
We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as Mrs. Engelstad has worked to resolve this issue. Thank you for your understanding!
Today, January 24, 2025, Customs and Border Patrol will be doing a training (walk through) in our school buildings. This is just a practice for safety so they can get familiar with our schools in case they ever need to assist in the future.
They will start in Pembina at 9 AM and then head to Walhalla after. If you see their vehicles outside, there’s no need to worry! This is just a routine training.
Grades 4-7
Please remind all students to bring the following items for Frost Fire tomorrow 1/24/25:
Boots
Hat
Gloves

Warm socks
Dress in layers!
