🚌Blue Earth Area Transportation is excited to introduce the Bus Rider of the Week program! 🚌
This positive recognition program encourages safe, respectful, and kind behavior while riding the school bus.
Each week, bus drivers select one student who consistently follows bus safety rules, listens to the driver’s directions, and shows kindness and respect to others. Students chosen as Bus Rider of the Week receive a certificate of recognition and a free Mini Blizzard coupon from Dairy Queen as a reward for their great choices.🍨
Through this program, we aim to promote bus safety, responsibility, and a positive riding experience for all students. We appreciate the support of our families and community as we work together to keep our buses safe and welcoming.

🥞💀Mrs. Eckhardt’s Anatomy & Physiology students put their knowledge to the test in a deliciously creative way—by carving assigned bones out of pancakes! Each piece came together to form a full skeleton, complete with some seriously impressive (and anatomically correct) details.

Blue Earth Area Schools will have a 2 hour late start on Wednesday, December 10, 2025
Hands-on learning at its best! Mrs. Volz's Plant & Animal Science students rolled up their sleeves for dissection labs this week. They were fully engaged as they explored how plant and animal structures help organisms survive and thrive. Proud of their curiosity and hard work!
💡Mrs. Eckhardt's Chemistry in the Community class has been working towards a proposal about an alternative material to produce U.S. money.
One of the focuses in this discussion has been around copper. As we've been discussing how metals form electrically charged species through chemical reactions, we tried making our own homemade batteries out of pennies, cardboard, vinegar, and tin foil.
After an initial fail (typical of science), we did some research, proposed alternative ideas, and had success in creating enough current to power a small light bulb! Students were at the center of the engineering and iterative design process that makes science so intriguing and rewarding. Props to the whole class for hard work and persistence!

Our high schoolers had an amazing opportunity yesterday at Construct Tomorrow! 🛠️🏗️
Students spent the morning exploring hands-on activities in a variety of skilled trades, everything from carpentry and welding to electrical work, heavy equipment operation, pipefitters, cement masons and more. They were able to ask questions, test out real tools, and connect with industry professionals who shared insight into the many high-demand, high-skill career pathways and apprenticeships training programs.
Events like this help students discover their strengths, spark new interests, and open doors to future careers they may not have considered before. A huge thank you to South Central Workforce Council who made this day possible! 🔨✨
