On a warm and windy day our junior high tigers competed very well. We had 39 PR's yesterday! We had many try new events either because they were interested or because the coaches wanted to see what they could do. As a group the junior high kids are coachable athletes!!! Included are the results from yesterday's meet.

We had a great first session last week but we would love to get even more students involved. We hope you can fit this activity into your schedule.
A huge thanks goes out to this group of volunteers who bought or made granola bars, muffins, or cookies. These treats helped our elementary students finish the last of their state assessments.
We made a visit today to Dusin’s, our Classroom to Career sponsor. The kids enjoyed learning about, seeing, and touching different flooring options. We appreciate Dusin’s sponsoring us. With their help we were able to buy stethoscopes for our human body unit and a magnetic number line to use during math.

Beautiful day for our 2nd track meet for our JH tigers. We had many PR's or very close to last week's performances. We had many kids try new events, try their best at every event, earn some medals, face disappointment as a learning experience, and have a good time today. That's what JH track is about. Included is the link to results. Our next meet is our Washington make up meet on Monday the 15th at 3:00. It's a no school day, but it's a track meet day!
