These Intro students were willing to take a break on their own projects yesterday to help out with the grocery shelves for the Market on the Hill. They did a great job of working together to get a lot accomplished in a short amount of time!

Spanish 4 wrapped up their Spanish Civil War unit with a mock trial, more interviews of Spaniards, & an art project.

Mt. Pulaski Schools conducted a “lockout” in both schools by request of the Mt. Pulaski Police Department due to a local incident. The “lockout” has been lifted and both schools are once again operating as usual. The local incident had no connections with the schools; the lockout was a precaution for student and staff safety.

"Topper Express" coffee puts a little pep in my step!
