Student Council 2022 Fundraiser- Support Our Volunteer Fire Fighters
The 7-12th Grade Student Council Members planned and executed a fundraiser for volunteer firefighters who fought the fire in Halsey. Students collected just over $500.00, which was then matched by the Stapleton School Booster Club. This money went to purchasing items firefighters would need on a call. Packages included: tissue, wet wipes, jerky, trail mix, socks, Tylenol, Chapstick, lens wipes, and gift cards. These care packages were used as door prizes at a thank-you dinner in Thedford for those who fought the Halsey Fire.
Larry Hardesty, who has published many articles of community research in the Stapleton Enterprise and is a 1965 graduate of SPS, came today to teach the third grade about our community's history! The third grade learned a lot about how our county and many small towns formed. Thank you, Mr. Hardesty!
