FCCLA NLC--And we are off...cross country trek with flights canceled. But, fingers crossed, we get there today yet!

FBLA NLC - Today, the girls practiced while Mrs. Bruna attended a Judge Manager meeting. Then the group toured the Sea Life aquarium, enjoyed some shopping, ate lunch and toured the Riverwalk in San Antonio. At the opening session, Kelly performed her state duties and Mrs. Bruna was recognized on stage for being selected for the Adviser Wall of Fame. She is the 18th high school teacher from Kansas to receive this honor in 30 years.

Bring Water, Bring Instrument and music if you already have it. This will be for all band students 7-12 and graduated students are welcome.

Planning a family vacation, appointment, or special trip this school year?
With 169 student attendance days on the academic calendar, every day of learning matters. To help families plan ahead, we've created a USD 108 Vacation Planner that highlights major school breaks throughout the year.
Whenever possible, we encourage families to schedule vacations, appointments, and other activities during school breaks to maximize student attendance and learning opportunities.
The complete district calendar is always available at usd108.org.
This planner is intended as a quick reference for students and families. Some listed breaks include teacher and staff workdays when students are not in attendance.

Attention.
There will be a HS Football player and parent meeting Tuesday June 16 @ 7 PM in the High School Library.
I need to share information about a couple events coming up in the next couple weeks
The Dr. Dish shooting machine is a big hit. We would like to say thanks to the Booster Club and Coach Huckett for making this happen. It is a great tool for our kids to improve this off season.

State track meet participants were honored at the June BOE meeting. Nine student athletes competed in 13 events. State track members who were available were at the board meeting, along with their coaches, to be recognized. Congratulations!

The USD 108 FFA Chapter has been on fire this spring! At the June BOE meeting, members with a variety of awards were honored. Pictured are just 3 of the large group of 14 FFA members who earned honors at the recent state FFA conference in Manhattan. USD 108 is so proud of these students!
