Check out the fun we had at our 1st quarter assembly.
The goal for pet a palooza was to collect 500 lbs of pet food. We collected 916 lbs!!
Because our students exceeded their goals, Mr. Meister and Mr. Barrett agreed to eat crickets and chocolate-covered scorpions.
A big round of applause for their efforts!

With the help of Brent Caulley, they filled out 59 applications to 31 different universities, state colleges, community colleges, and trade schools across the US. All of the schools are featured in the picture below.
We can't wait to see our Eagles soar.
Exciting news!
