“It is pretty rare that this many people, as the result of an election, go from being employed to unemployed in a matter of a few weeks. I can’t think of a time when it happened this quickly.”

To honor FFA Week, the Encampment FFA Chapter came up with activities for the school and community to take part in. We did dress up days and a fun little activity each day this week. Starting off with Sunday evening, members came to the school to decorate the halls and lockers with FFA spirit. Monday was dress like Dale Brisby and the members hosted a breakfast for the teachers.

In 2024, the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) which operated under the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) began mandating electronic identification—or EID—tags for cattle and bison traveling across state lines to prevent disease outbreaks.

Yet another glorious green day of avoiding traps and causing mischief.  

Encampment K-12 students learned all things trout related during the inaugural Trout in the Classroom day on Wednesday, March 5.

Divided by grades, students made their way through six different classrooms and stations covering stream tables, prominent Platte Valley macroinvertebrates, river restoration, connections to literacy and art, watersheds and a trout migration obstacle course.

An hour before the first morning bell, elementary students and family members gathered at Encampment K-12’s library for Books and Breakfast two weeks ago.
