Students in Steve
Johnston’s Digital
Electronics class are taking
their skills up a level,
literally. The Logan 10th
through 12th graders are
embarking on a project to
design an unmanned aerial
vehicle (UAV) that would be
used to identify power line
problems and obstructions.
“We are in the
very beginning stages,”
explains Johnston. “This is
something that has never
been done before at the high
school level.”

Dairyland Power will offer

“It was an exciting
intergenerational activity,”
O’Hern explains. “The elders
taught us about ‘wowauncila,’
the Lakota word meaning, ‘to
walk with compassion.”
Reservation students then
created 6 by 6 compassion tiles,
similar to the art pieces created
by students in the School
District of La Crosse.
“When the compassion

“Our students were sharing

the Lakota students were
doing the same. It was a
great cultural lesson.”
In May another team
of Health Science Academy
students will visit Pine Ridge
where plans are underway
for the Reservation’s

“They say compassion

coordinator Matthew
Christen received a call from
the Salvation Army that they
were looking for bikes, he
knew his program could fill
the need. Christen and 8-10
students meet twice a week
to build and repair bikes.
The program recently built
and donated 53 bikes to an
organization in Ghana.
The bike shop receives a
regular shipment of bikes that
have been dropped off at the
county landfill. The bikes are
then assessed to determine if
they are repairable or should
be scrapped for parts.
“The students take a
lot of pride in getting the
bikes cleaned up and ready
for someone to use,” states
Christen. “By donating
them to the Salvation Army
the students had a strong
sense of giving back to the
community.”
Logan 7th grader Orion
Lee was one of the Bike
Works volunteers.
“I wanted to help out
the community,” he said. “I
was happy to give the bikes
to the people who needed it
more than me.”
Lee was previously the
recipient of a Bike Works
bike. He received his bike
through the shop’s “Earn
a Bike” program. Lee
volunteered at the bike shop
for 10 hours and passed two
exams, one on bicycle parts
and the other on bike safety,
the requirements to earning
a bike.
“I want the students
to develop a passion for
lifelong biking,” Christen
adds. “I see myself as a
mentor.”

SOTA II Students Take on
Bullying Through Musical
At the School of
Technology and Arts II
(SOTAII) students are used to
showcasing their work through
music and performance. So,
when teachers Jennifer Gulsvig
and Josh Wolcott approached
the students about integrating
their writing assignments into
a musical they were up for the
challenge.
No Bullies, Get Real was
a musical that included five
songs about bullying issues.
The school’s 7th graders
choreographed the numbers
and taught them to the rest of
the school. In language arts
the students wrote stories and
poems on topics about bullying
and then worked in groups
to develop a script from the
writings.
“It was powerful to listen
to the students during the
process,” shared SOTA II
teacher Josh Wolcott. “We all
have experienced some form
of bullying in our lives and
this was a platform to talk
about it.”
The SOTA II students
performed their musical four
times for other students in the
district including the students
at nearby SOTA I.
“The ultimate message is
we all have a choice and we
all have a responsibility to be
kind to one another,” Wolcott
added.

for Academy Students
Students in the School
District of La Crosse’s
Construction Academy have
learned about many of the
professions and trades in the
construction industry. Until
recently their coursework
had not included operating
heavy machinery like cranes,
end loaders and forklifts. A
partnership with the Wisconsin
Association of General
Contractors resulted in the
Academy having access to 5
heavy machinery simulators
for the students to use.
“We were one of only five
programs in the entire state
that got this opportunity,”
shares Annette O’Hern,
Supervisor of Career and

The simulators are used
by the Association to train
employees in how to use
