The Herington High School FBLA’s Community Service Project this year focuses on the leadership of our youth. Therefore, we would like to host a day of Leadership Activities for the 8th grade class. Along with the Dickinson County Youth Leadership Group we will be taking all 8th graders to Rock Springs Ranch Friday, March 22nd for Leadership Activities. You will need to wear jeans and a railer shirt and comfortable shoes. You also need to pack a sack lunch for the trip. No extra money will be needed. We will leave the school at 9:00 and return approximately 2:45. We look forward to a great day. Sponsors on the Trip are: Lisa Beye, Tom Flax and Kyle Barton. FBLA members will be assisting with the events.

Your input is a major component of identifying key characteristics of our next superintendent. Mr. Wilford will also meet in separate sessions with our teachers, staff, and administrative staff.
