UDMO (Upper Des Moines Opportunity) usually hosts Toys for Tots in the past. Last year they changed it to adapting a family. With all that the year 2020 has been, they are looking for donations for the elderly people of our community. To use now and later. You can do this as a homeroom or individual. Please pile all gifts in the back of my room. No need to wrap them. Items needed—blankets, puzzles, crossword puzzle books, kitchen towels. Our local V&S, Dollar General, and other great stores on Main Street would be great places to start looking for some of these items.

This year the Humboldt Music Department will be prerecording our concerts and broadcasting some pieces on Humboldt Music Department Facebook page while also sending out private links for family members to view. Please help support your fellow students in music this year by liking the Facebook page and watching the performances that are posted.

Students, if you would be interested in participating in the Iowa Regional High School Ethics Bowl, based out of Iowa State University. Please contact Mrs. Wiebke in Room 15 or at ewiebke@humboldt.k12.ia.us The Ethics Bowl is in many ways like debate, except rather than an adversarial model, in an Ethics Bowl teams are encouraged to adjust their position collaboratively to reflect the best vision of how to proceed in response to an ethical case.
