Earlier this school year, Dave generously volunteered an entire day â and his tractor â to help dig the holes for our new wayfinding signs at both the elementary and Jr/Sr high schools.
Thanks to his hard work, there were no blisters, no broken backs â just a generous community member lending a hand to make our schools better. Thank you, Mr. Wherry!đ§Ą
đ§ĄCommunity Shoutout! đ¤
Our second November appreciation post goes to Austin Lett, owner of Lett Machine and Performance!
This summer, Mr. Lett brought his skills and equipment out to the high school to help fix the goalpost crossbar on the practice field after it came down.
We canât thank him enough for taking time out of his busy schedule to get things back in shape before football season kicked off! đđ
Thanks for all you do to support our school and community, Austin!
This November, weâre celebrating the incredible volunteers who make our school district such a wonderful place to learn, work, and grow. Their generosity and dedication truly make a difference! đ§Ąđ¤
Our first spotlight goes to Mr. Josh Miller! đż
Mr. Miller has been volunteering his time and talents around our district for years â since at least 2016! He spends countless hours trimming hedges, pruning trees and shrubs, and sharing his expert advice to help us keep our campuses looking their best.
Weâre so grateful for Mr. Miller's continued commitment and care for our schools. Thank you, Mr. Miller, for helping our district shine â inside and out! đłâ¨
