Valentines Day



This is our valentine box.  Students bring an empty cereal box.  We cover it with red bulletin board paper and add the arms and hands.  Students decorate a paper plate and add a heart and name tag.  In the background students are passing out their valentines.

State Wrestling Results

Well, we are home now and Reed did not place at state wrestling but has invaluable experience to help him next year and throughout his life.  So proud of his hard work and determination!

State Bound!!!

Well, very exciting news-if you are from Iowa and understand what the  Iowa High School State Wrestling means...our son Reed Russell has qualified for the state tournament in Des Moines next week.  We are elated and so proud of him.  He is also my high school helper so on Monday my kids will get to see a clip of his wrestling and get the big news.  They made him cards for good luck on Friday!
