Opt-Out of Old Blackboard Alerts
If youโve been receiving calls, texts, or alerts that seem to come from our schoolโs phone numberโespecially about lunch notificationsโthis 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, thereโs no need to worry! This is just a routine training.
