On May 3rd, the JH Track Meet will be in Arnold, not Gothenburg starting at 10 am.

The Preschoolers enjoyed cleaning up the garden area in front of the school and putting out new mulch. They also cleaned up trash around the front of the building. A breezy but great community clean-up!

More Photos from the NHS trip to Lincoln, Nebraska.







The NHS students took their annual service trip to Lincoln. We started out our venture with a tour of our State Capital building, then went back in time to the Prehistoric Put Put Golf. Enjoyed a great supper at Cheddars and then went underground and experienced a fantastic tour of Robbers Cave. Finally to end our trip we helped sort boxes at the People’s City Mission. We found anything from fancy dolls, sunglasses, to sombreros! It was a great way to make an impact in Nebraska.

Maverick Golfers Win Triangular at Hyannis
It was a chilly, windy day Tuesday up in the sandhills by Hyannis. We did not golf our best, but did well enough to win the triangular. We were 3 strokes ahead of Garden Co. 212 to 215.
It was a good lesson to learn, even when you are not doing your best, keep going. It was a tough day for all the teams. Individually we had 3 who were in the top 6:
1st - Cole Kramer - 44
4th - Kyle Kramer - 53
6th - Braden Powell - 56
The crew is working hard. We know that being in class C this year will make districts a bit harder.

Due to poor weather conditions, the JH track meet on Wednesday, April 5th in Paxton has been postponed. We will notify you as soon as they figure out a makeup date.
