Eagles Update!

Many times our love for our community shows through our support for our school. We love Eagle Grove and this year we have a great vibe at the HS! Our students have rallied around each other and we have seen bigger crowds in the stands and bigger smiles in the halls. As a community we should be very proud.

Our football team got their first victory of the season and they deserve it, they work hard every day and it is time for a pay day. We are all so proud of them!

Our boys XC team is making an appearance at the State Meet this Saturday in Ft. Dodge, they will be running at 1:30 PM! These guys are a true definition of a team.. they work hard to be the best they can and they give it all they have! We wish them good luck and are so proud of them as well!

We are gearing up for the musical on the weekend of Nov. 14th. They put in many late nights and will be glad to see so many shining faces in the audience!

Gage Behnkendorf made the all-state band and will be performing in November! A huge accomplishment for Gage and what a great way to showcase his musical talents!

We are proud of all our fall athletes and their commitment to our school. Volleyball and girls xc worked hard this season, making huge improvements and contributions to their programs.

We are moving from our fall season into our winter one and we hope for continued support from our community and our students!

Go Eagles! :)
