What an evening for Nordic Athletics!! Starting with the high school, both our girls Varsity & JV volleyball teams are leaving Rapid River victorious. The JV boys football team left Florence with a win of their own. On the middle school side, our 7th girls lost their first game 10-17 and our 8th grade won 26-15. Great day to be a Nordic! #NordicsEverywhere

ATTENTION PARENTS!
If you're interested in being a part of our Student Athletic Handbook revisions, please call Paula in the office and sign up. Depending on interest, we will choose a few parents at random to be a part of it. If you have any questions, email Rachel Gustafson at rgustafson@go-nordics.com.
It is unfortunate that we will not have enough athletes to safely field a Varsity football team at North Dickinson for this upcoming 2023 season. We will have enough underclassmen for a JV team but we don't feel it is safe to pull them up to the Varsity level due to safety concerns. We are currently working on a new schedule and will let you all know as soon as possible with the changes.
Practice will begin on August 7th with more details to follow. If you have any questions, please email Rachel Gustafson at rgustafson@go-nordics.com.
