Lucas with an awesome live edge table made out of ash. He loved the live edge look so much that he figured out a way to put it on the cut ends to make it live edge all the way around. This project turned out neat. Good job, Lucas!




The varsity scholars bowl team competed in the league tournament at Frankfort on Wednesday. They finished with a 7-4 record and earned 5th place out of 12 teams. The team competes in Regionals next Thursday.


Octavien with a nice coat/hat rack made out of pine. He whipped this project out in no time and did an excellent job. Way to go, Octavien!

U.S.D. 108 will stay with a 2 hour late start today. However, there might be a very few students that will need to be picked up by Dan Ditmars in a vehicle other than a bus. If you are one of those students, you will be contacted. As always, stay safe.
