January breakfast/lunch menu
High school students had an action-packed “big chill” day to wrap up the end of the first semester. NHS sponsored the morning activities with hula hoop rock, paper, scissors (congratulations Juniors, Freshman, & teachers)
After, there was a class caroling competition. The classes had to sing a popular Christmas song and add choreography. Sophomores won with their rendition of “Rockin’ around the Christmas tree.” Everyone else did a fabulous job!
We finished the day with an NHS/STUCO sponsored gingerbread contest. Mrs. Beye’s senior advisory won the newly-established traveling gnome trophy with their train gingerbread. Thank you to everyone for making this day great! Happy Holidays!
HES Families: Please find the winter newsletter attached. This was sent home with students today. Have a wonderful holiday break, Railers!
Seniors, here is a $1000 scholarship from the Kansas Sheriff's Association. See the flyer and website.
The middle school staff members chose 8th grader, Colten Gehrke, as the December Student of the Month. Colten participates in Football, Basketball, Track, Weightlifting, Archery, Band, and Student Council. Colten believes he was chosen as the student of the month because he is respectful to both his teachers and peers, he tries his best in all after school activities, encourages others and does his best to be the best student he can. Colten is the son of Steve Gehrke.
