The 5th graders had a great time yesterday at the Water Jamboree at Harlan County Reservoir! We learned about all things water including water systems, water conservation, and irrigation! (Oh my!) We also learned about beekeeping, migration, and fishing!






The 3rd and 4th Grade Classes went on a field trip to The Archway in Kearney today! They learned about how America has changed--from the days of the Oregon Trail to now (watching the cars drive down the Interstate)! The kids rated it a 10/10 field trip!







Our freshmen attended the Southwest Nebraska Career Fair in Holdrege today and learned about the importance of first impressions, college options, and met various career professionals from our area. It was wonderful exposure to job possibilities in all six career clusters!
