Underwood School’s Elementary classes are enjoying reading by a campfire and enjoying "smores" this week during their library time. An awesome, fun learning experience that is also helping students get ready for some summer fun!!!
4th Grade finished up their embryology unit today and got the chance to play with the chicks! They loved every moment!
4th grade has completed their embryology unit with an opportunity to hold the chicks. It was our best hatch yet, with 27 hatching this year! The kids really enjoyed it and learned a lot. Take notice of our green chick and be sure to ask a 4th grader how it got that way!

Underwood 3rd Grade students did presentations on the Solar System on Wednesday. Students in person learning and distance learning participated. Great job!
The 4th grade is enjoying their embryology lessons each week. Last week we set the eggs in the incubator. This week, we tested the strength of the shells . We had two students and Mr. Hovland stand on the eggs to see how much weight they could hold.
Join the UHS Grand March group and watch your favorite couple walk out at prom. We will live stream Grand March Saturday, April 24th at 7:00 pm.
