🥈 2nd Place out of 25 Teams! 🥈
Florence showed up big at the Friendship Tournament at the Just A Game Fieldhouse in the Wisconsin Dells! 🏐🔥
The Bobcats cruised through pool play with a dominant 4-0 run—without dropping a single set—sweeping Rio, Rhinelander, Royall, and Oshkosh North to punch their ticket to the Gold Bracket.
On Saturday, Florence kept the momentum rolling with clutch bracket wins over Auburndale and Wausau West to earn a spot in the Championship match against Wittenberg-Birnamwood.
Juniors Kelsi Chrisman and Miley VanDenHeuvel were for the 30-player All-Tournament Team! 🌟
So proud of this team and all their hard work—congratulations, girls! 💙🤍

🌲 What an Incredible Outdoor Learning Experience! 🌲
In May our students took part in an unforgettable adventure at Trees For Tomorrow Environmental Education Center, where learning came to life beyond the classroom!
Throughout the trip, students:
🌙 Participated in a night hike, discovering the fascinating world of nocturnal wildlife.
🤝 Built teamwork and leadership skills through challenge course activities.
💧 Investigated the health of local lakes by testing water quality and studying aquatic macroinvertebrates.
🌿 Developed field science skills, learning tree identification, recognizing animal signs, and practicing scientific journaling.
🔥 Learned valuable outdoor survival skills.
🪵 Explored forest ecology and the important role trees play in our environment.
🐸 Compared ecosystems through a bog investigation, collecting scientific data and observing unique plant and animal life.
This hands-on experience allowed students to strengthen their understanding of ecology, environmental science, and conservation while creating memories that will last a lifetime.
A huge thank you to our teachers, chaperones, and the staff at Trees For Tomorrow for providing such an engaging and educational experience!
💚 Learning doesn't just happen in the classroom—it happens wherever curiosity takes us!
Attached are some pictures from the events, but you can click here for the full album.
