Good morning. Due to the slushy and icy road conditions, the Groton Area School District will be running two hours late today - Thursday, April 2, 2026. OST will be opening at 7:00 AM.
Thank you.
Thank you.
HISTORY MADE!! First home game in program history… First win in program history! The girls showed up and took care of business with a 15-4 win over Sisseton. This is what being the first looks like — setting the tone, building the standard, and giving future players something to chase. Every run, every out, every moment… you just became part of something that will last. We are so proud of this group for competing, supporting each other, and embracing the moment! Go Tigers!

Groton Area HOSA students Ashlynn Warrington, Makenna Krause, and Neely Althoff created this “movie trailer” as part of their Public Health event for State HOSA—and it turned out awesome!
This project challenged students to combine creativity with real-world public health concepts, and these three did a great job bringing their message to life!
