5th Grade Annual IDIDAPROB 2025. According to tradition going back nearly 40 years, the fifth graders participated in their annual Ididaprob bike ride. This was a 10-12 mile ride. The kids were placed on a team with an adult guide (think amazing race). Every 2-3 miles they stopped at a checkpoint to solve math problems that guided them to the next checkpoint. Thank you to Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Morris and the parents who participated and led the groups of 5th graders on their 12 mile amazing race. We can't do this type of activity without the support of our parents and community. It's a great time to be a BLACK BEAR! Great job 5th graders.
