Good afternoon Mustangs!
Positive tidbits for your day:
1. If you didn't see the Wizard of Oz production last night, it is a must see tonight at 7:00pm! The students did an outstanding job last night and it was a pleasure to see them showcase their talents.
2. Mrs. Burroughs brought her wheel class into the community this afternoon to pick up garbage. Check out the story this evening/tonight on Keloland News - not sure of exact broadcast time. Great job students and Mrs. Burroughs!
3. The high school track team is competing today and tomorrow (finally!) and enjoying the nicer weather. Wish them luck as they begin to compete for entry into the state track meet in Spearfish on Memorial Day weekend.
Go Mustangs!
