All football players going to the Valley City Team Camp give your registration form to Mr. Wanner this week. 

In addition to individual honors, congratulations are also extended to all the Groton math students who participated in the 62nd Annual NSU Mathematics Contest.  As a school, Groton tied for third place with Milbank in the AA/A division.  438 students from 25 schools in three states (North and South Dakota and Minnesota) participated in the event.  To determine school rank, the highest score on each of the four tests was taken to compute each school's result.
