The kindergarten class will be taking a little field trip to Gering to the Legacy of the Plains Museum. Always exciting, and a fun place for the boys especially.

The following day there is a preview of the changing of the guard at the school house as the pre-K and Kindergarten Round-Up will be held, usually mid-morning until early afternoon.

The high school track team will be at Kimball that day and the middle school track team will be in Morrill. Safe travel to all of you throughout the week. Good luck, behave and have fun!

Wednesday is May 1st and I don’t think they do much for “May Day” anymore, but yeah for May anyway!

Here is a heads-up ... the spring concert and art show at the school will be on May 2nd.

Have a great week and take care until the next time. Barb Cross 436-7152.
