Elementary Field Day
Elementary field day for all students in Kindergarten-6th grade will be tomorrow, May 10th! Because of the moisture, elementary field day will be held at the elementary school (not at the HS football/track area).
All events will begin at 12pm. All parents and community members are invited to come and cheer on our young athletes!
Sunburst Schools wishes Refiner alumni Treyton Pickering good luck as he has a minicamp invitation with the NY Giants. He is the only 6 man athlete to have an opportunity in the NFL! We're proud of your accomplishments and wish you the best of luck!
Mrs. Nix's sophomore biology class had the opportunity to visit Montana Tech in Butte. Students received a tour from two recent graduates of campus and got to hear about their experiences as Orediggers. After lunch and a presentation from Associate Professor, Bryce Hill, students either got to participate in a cadaver lab or robotic lab. We all then received a mine tour from two more tech students. It was a very educational field trip.
Golf Season
Mr. Fleisher and his golf team wrapped up their season on Monday at Divisionals in Great Falls. Although no one qualified for the state meet, Coach Fleisher was proud of the gains his young team made throughout the year!

On Wednesday, the 3rd grade class braved the elements and went on their class field trip to Giant Springs. They got a lesson from the wonderful staff on the wildlife in the area. The class even got to paint an animal paw print mold to take home! They visited the fish hatchery and went hiking around the park. After burning off some energy for the ride home at Gibson Park, where geese and ducks roamed around, they ventured back home!
Kinderg"ART"en-One Point Perspective
The 6th grade class presented their research papers to their classmates today, describing the origin, history, and uses of a spice that they chose. At the conclusion of the presentation, we enjoyed a couple of dishes that students made highlighting their spice. The papers were great, and the basil tortellini and vanilla custard were delicious!
