SkillsUSA students Hayden Cordell, Hudson Manis, and Deacon Holtsclaw have built 10 picnic tables for our school and FTE. These students secured a wooly worm grant to help fund this project. This is part of their American Spirit competition. They will be competing later in April, but our schools will be reaping the benefits long before that date. We are so proud of these young men for all of their hard work.

This will be very helpful in avoiding unnecessary class disruptions. If a student has lost a charger or just the cord, replacement costs are as follows: Charger - $25, Charger cord- $10 Please let us know if we can help ensure your student's assigned iPad is ready to use.
