Who would have thought that while studying the letters G & W the perfect Mystery Reader was found? Kindergartners went to Weiland’s Grocery in Bendena for a tour and story. Ruth Weiland read the book, Pete The Cat’s Trip to the Supermarket and answered numerous business-related questions. She gave each student a 2023 Puppies and Kittens calendar as well as a ‘Smarties Lollipop.’ Thank you, Ruth, for helping us learn by sharing your business and the gifts with us.
Seniors Kyra Johnson and Avery Weathersbee signed with Highland Community College to play volleyball next year. Congratulations, Kyra and Avery!
