Our BETA club competed at the state level today and placed in 3 categories. I am always so proud of our small school and how we can show up among the best of the bigger schools! Sophia B. took FIRST place in Poetry
Alli Price took 3rd place in 6th grade Social Studies, and Jonathan Varis took 3rd in 6th grade Physical Ed/Health. I am a proud sponsor again this year! in addition, we competed in a new category of cake decorating, and our own Savanna Welch did an outstanding job! What a long but amazing day!

If your child participates in peewee basketball plesse make sure if you are not going to be at a game due to sickness or any other reason please notify your coaches. we had 3 2nd graders show up for a game today. I will be forced to look at cancelling a team and combining to 1 team if this is what is to happen.
