The High School team took 2nd place. Awesome job Mrs. DeeDee Hartzog and Mrs. Ruth Anne O'Cain for working with our teams towards this outstanding achievement!

Items Needed

We are in need of a large refrigerator for the HS science lab and a small refrigerator for the MS lab. If anyone has one in decent shape that we could have to store science materials in we could give a tax credit for the donation. We also still need a wall mount for the old style TVs for our school television station. Please be on the look out for these items and let us know if you or someone you know has one they would like to donate.
