Students were having fun and calming their nerves before their Veteran's Day performance.
Yesterday, McPherson County Schools hosted their annual tribute to our Veterans. We had many local Veterans attend with their families along with some new Veterans that came to appreciate family members that performed. Thank you for all that you have done for our country. I will post some pictures on this thread, but will be adding more on our McPherson County Facebook page.
