HSRA was proud to welcome Andrea Martin (EdVisions) and Uesugi Kenshi (Institute of Project-based Learning in Japan) and their group who visited our school on Monday, September 24. They interviewed staff and students and, in turn, were interviewed by students for the school newspaper. We all had a great time looking at student work and talking about innovations in education.

Minnesota has been a breeding ground for phenomenal musicians. From the relatively unknown to international superstars, the Land of 10,000 Lakes is also the Land of 10,000 great musical acts! The new Minnesota Music Festival showcases Minnesota’s talent with continuous live music on two stages; a selection of Minnesota artisans; food from great Minnesota restaurants; and fun exhibitor booths.

Held on beautiful Harriet Island, this two day-event will celebrate all that we love about Minnesota: Great music and art, fabulous food and beautiful fall colors.

Doors open at 4:30 pm

Come and see HSRA and Another Level Record’s own “Da 4″ band light up the stage Saturday evening when they perform and open for both Brother Ali and Mint Condition.

So, get there early and support all of the local musicians on both Friday and Saturday.
