Tracy Moody, an Anatomy instructor from NSU, visited the Newell School District on Wednesday, October 2nd. During her visit, she brought a sheep heart and a cow eyeball for students to dissect. The students had the opportunity to dissect the eyeball, removing the lens and other structures while learning about the different parts and functions of the eye. When dissecting the sheep heart, they explored its chambers, valves, and their respective functions. Overall, the students thoroughly enjoyed the experience and had a great time with the dissections.

The Newell Middle School Football Team played their first home game today. It was a nail biter. They played awesome and showcased what their offense could do. Newell had 2 interceptions and a fumble recovery too. There were many fans cheering them on and the high school football team ran the chain gang and did some announcing. Their next game is against Harding County on October 10th here at home.
The Newell Irrigator Cross Country Team competed in Sturgis today. It was great weather, but one tough never ending uphill. We had season records set by Clint Winkler and Bethany Mahaffy.
