Attention K-5 parents who use the car rider pick up line. In order to separate traffic that will be arriving for baseball, softball, and track, the pick up line is going to move to the parking lot. There will still be two lines, but they will begin at the fuel barrels and wrap around in front of the bus garage. See the attached photo for details. This will begin on Monday, March 20.
One of our kindergarten teachers, Mrs. Jones, was awarded the Grade School Teacher of the Month by the Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce. Congratulations, Mrs. Jones!

How did our little JH Bowlers do at Regional today? Well my my my I'm glad you asked.
How does the boys finishing 4th out of 30 and a trip to next weeks State Tournament grab ya? The boys team, now official dubbed the Salty Six where lead by 2 top 10 overall finishers in Jacob Marlow-9th 516 series, and Ethan Thompson-5th 540 series. On the day the Salty Six totaled 1816 pins to earn the trip to State. The girls had to compete as individuals as we could not field a full team and they were awesome as well. Teiryn Andrews finished one spot out of qualifying for state with an 11th place finish and 346 series. So proud of our Keglers.
