Red Lake Elementary Students
Spend a day on the Lake
Do you know what happens to the students at Red Lake Elementary students when they do
their homework? At the end of every quarter the students who complete 90% of their Reading
and Math homework receive an incentive trip. On March 24th, 70 students who achieved the goal
for the third quarter spent the day on Lower Red Lake ice fishing.
There were a lot of students who have never been ice fishing before, so it was very
educational for them. We could have not asked for a better day to be out on the lake. The sun
was shining, fish were biting, and the event was a success. We had some students who caught
their first fish and some that learned how to bait their own hook. What a better way to teach
survival skills, patience and working together!
When all the perch were caught our Master Filleters Jeff Kingbird and Greg Jordan cleaned
the fish and cooked them up. This gave the students an opportunity to see what happens with the
fish after they are caught and also taste their own fish. We would like to thank the following for making the 1st annual Red Lake Elementary ice
fishing extravaganza a success. Red Lake DNR, Red Lake Community Members, Parents,
Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Teachers, Administration, Transportation, Northland Fishing
Tackle, Today’s Tackle, Tabers Bait, L&M Fleet, Gander Mountain, Walmart, Pamida, and
Kmart. Without your contributions this event would have not been a success!
Thanks again for your support,
Mr. Hanson, Mr. Wax
