The Seniors helped the school celebrate Constitution Day 2024. They led mini lessons over the goals set forth in the Preamble of the Constitution and gave out patriotic tattoos. The seniors were given pocket copies of The Constitution that were donated by the Bon Homme Republican party along with Charles Ramirez. The whole school was dressed up in red, white, and blue.
There will be no Junior High Football game today. There will still be a JV game starting at 4:15,
On Tuesday, September 24 the National Honor Society along with the Student Council will be hosting a blood drive at the school. Please use the QR code on the flyer or contact Mrs. Fathke at the school to get signed up.
