Juniors and seniors traveled to Chadron State College for a college fair today! Students were able to visit with representatives from 2 and 4-year colleges, tech colleges, career schools, and several branches of the military.

The fifth graders attended Nature Fest 2024 at the Fort Niobrara Wildlife Refuge last Wednesday. There were several other schools that attended as well. This year's theme was Sandhills Prairie and Bison. After the day at the refuge concluded, the C-K fifth graders had ice cream in the Valentine City Park and spent time at the Valentine Public Library. Even with the warm temperatures that day, the students had fun and learned a lot!

JH Football Schedule update: JH's game against Sioux County on Oct 18th has been canceled due to low numbers. We have added another game with Hay Springs on Sept 30th at Hay Springs. Kick-off is at 4:30 PM

We need volunteers for the chain gang at HS Football games. We also need refs for JH Football and chain gang volunteers. We pay for reffing, and the chain gang crew gets free concessions. We are thankful for those who have helped in the past and continue to help, but we need more help so that the same people are not asked each week. We need two helpers for the chain gang for the high school football game on Friday. Kick-off is at 1 p.m., and I would like the chain gang to be at the field by 12:45 p.m. The other games that we need help with reffing and chain gang are: Sept 27th for junior high and high school Oct 11th for junior high and high school. If you do not have experience with chain gang, it takes 5 minutes to learn. HS refs do a great job helping the chain gang. Please contact Mr. Galvin if you are interested in helping. We'd greatly appreciate it! 402-823-4117
