A big CONGRATULATIONS to our girls basketball team and coaches on their victory last night over the Faulkton Area Trojans! With the win, the girls have qualifies for the state tournament for the 7th year in a row.
The Rustlers will take the court at the Huron Arena on Thursday, March 11th at 2:00 PM. They will be taking on our nearby rivals, the Hanson Lady Beavers. Due to the fact that we will be playing so early in the afternoon, we will not be having classes next Thursday, March 11th. Our teaching staff will still report in the morning for a Teacher In-service. It is my hope that everyone will take the opportunity to travel to Huron and support the Lady Rustlers as they make another run at a state championship!
Go Rustlers!!!!!!!
Mr. Hawkins
Good Luck to the CBH Academic Festival students today!! We know you'll make Ethan proud!
Breakfast Change Thursday, March 4th. Pancakes will be served instead of Breakfast Pizza.
