7th Grade Volleyball - Monday 12/5 (Carrollton)

The 7th grade volleyball girls traveled to Carrollton last night to take on the Cavaliers. They went 3-0 winning all three sets; 25-10, 25-6, 15-11. Kinsley Conger lead the team with 22 points, Alexis Hagerty had 16, and Ella Thom helped bring it home with 9 points. The lady huskies did a tremendous job crushing it at the net helping bring the team to its victory.

No matter how busy our days can get, it's always good to get in a little fun when we can.

Mr. Chase jumped in to play floor hockey during gym class this week.

On Wednesday, December 21st we will be holding the Winter Band concert in the high school gym at 7:00 pm. Call time for band members is 6:00 pm. Order of performances - 6th grade, 7th grade, 8th grade, HS/MS Jazz band and then HS Concert Band.

We have started collecting for Toys for Tots. If you would like to donate, please bring in new, unwrapped toys to the collection boxes in the high school lobby.

The rest of the new board games have arrived thanks to the Thrivent Action grant we received. They should all be processed and ready to check out by the end of the week (if not sooner). Did you know we have 100 board games for you to check out and play at home (or play in library)? We are far more than books! #boardgames #useyourlibrary #MyRML
