More Fruit Sales Fun Day pictures.

Middle School and High School students recently went on their Fruit Sales Fun Day. The day started off at Elk’s Theatre to watch Captain America: Brave New World. After the movie, they headed to Rushmore Crossing for some lunch and shopping. The day ended at Get Air.

Big shout out to Mrs. Calvetti, Mrs. Labs and Miss Swanson. Each of these amazing teachers applied for the West River Electric Teacher Scholarship; each were awarded $500. These teachers are dedicated to improving their classrooms and the education of their students. Thank you for all that you do and congratulations!

Ms. Pickett's fourth grade class just received pen pal letters from fourth grade students from Holy Redeemer Elementary in New Foundland, Canada. Along with the letters, the class also sent a magnet and a lanyard from their Canadian Province of New Foundland and Labrador. What an exciting opportunity for all these fourth-grade students! Happy writing!
