The speech team has had a busy last few days, we traveled to Ainsworth to compete, Brenna placed 4th in Humorous prose and 6th in serious prose. Today, we traveled to Bartlett to compete at conference. The girls worked hard to place us 7th out of 10 schools. Bailey placed 2nd in poetry and Brenna placed 6th in both humorous and serious prose. All girls worked extremely hard and should be extremely proud of themselves. They represented their school well!

Things are feeling pretty "GOLDEN" around here! We just received notice that Mrs. Ellen Trahan is the recipient of the Golden Owl award, an honor sponsored by the Nebraska FFA Foundation and Nationwide that recognizes agricultural education teachers that demonstrate dedication to agricultural education, a commitment to students, and have a positive impact on their students. She will be one of six recipients honored at the Nebraska State FFA Convention in Lincoln this April. Congratulations, Mrs. Trahan!
