Some of the senior boys played a prank on Mrs. Philbrick! We will miss this silly bunch!


At the Monday, May 17th board meeting, the TL-M board voted to make masking a RECOMMENDATION, not a requirement. The change is effective immediately.


Fifth grade released all of their 102 rainbow trout raised in Mr. Kurt Ziebarth's classroom with the help of ND Game and Fish, with Outdoor Education Project Administrator Jeffrey Long helping oversee today's release. Jesper Anderson released the first fish and Kendal Lelm released the last one. Maybe one your future Lightning Lake lunkers will have been from this class' project!
