On Thursday, our Preschool through 4th grade students celebrated Arbor Day and planted a tree by our softball fields.

In the afternoon, each class painted "kindness rocks" to place around the perimeter of the school.

The Rams dropped both games of their doubleheader against Haxtun last Thursday. Keep working Blue!
