NOVEMBER ACTIVITIES STUDENTS OF THE MONTH!
Congratulations to Ronnie Noska and Colbe Tappe!
Ronnis had an amazing tennis season and is already starting to work for next year. She ended this season 24-5 with another state appearance and a teammate who wants all of her team to be with her at the state tournament next year.
Colbe has been an excellent football captain. His commitment to the weight room, classroom and the field has paid off. He is a great example for the underclassmen. He consistently displays a positive attitude with great effort. Colbe was a dominant force on the football field on offense, defense and special teams.
