1st Quarter Honor Roll. Congratulations!!!
The McPherson County JH had the privilege to travel to Red Cloud and visit the Willa Cather Center. They also went on a tour of Willa Cather's Childhood Home, J.L Miner House, the Burlington Depot, Grace Episcopal Church, St. Juliana Falconieri Catholic Church, and the Red Cloud Opera House.
The whole experience was unique, educational, and just plain fun. The staff at the Willa Cather Center were very professional, accommodating, and knowledgeable. Lastly, our students were so well behaved. The ladies running The Willa Cather said they were the best students they have had and tried to keep them all, lol.
One-act students are working hard on their lines and prepping for their first competition coming up this Saturday, November 6th.
*All cast and crew need to be at the school by 9 a.m. Saturday.
*Bring money for meals. Gothenburg will have Husker hotdogs, pizza, and walking tacos available at their concession stand. All items are $3 each.
*North Platte kids will be dropped off at Cody Park on our way back. We should be at Cody Park around 4:15 and back at the school by 4:45.
See what is happening this week at McPherson County!
