Congratulations to our Metcalf Masters team at Nationals. The U1000 team won the national championship.! Also, second place in the U750 section was fantastic. We brought home 14 trophies in total including various individual awards.

Last weekend our sixth graders competed in the Minnesota Statewide Elementary Championship and won the team title! This was a first for Metcalf. Congratulations!
