👏 Thank you to Evan Papousek for being our guest speaker at tonight’s FFA Banquet! We have so much to be proud of here in Gregory County. Congratulations to Gregory County FFA on an outstanding and successful year! 👏
Track meet in Kimball and Golf in Avon/Bon Homme have been cancelled for tomorrow.
Today, our World’s qualifying engineering team delivered their presentation in preparation for next week’s global competition in Arizona. Fantastic work—we’re proud of you and can’t wait to see how you do!
Huge thank you to Officer Green and Charlene for spending time with our 5th graders yesterday and teaching them the life-saving skill of CPR! 💓👮♂️🚑
Your dedication, patience, and hands-on approach made a big impact, and the kids walked away feeling empowered and prepared. It’s never too early to learn how to help others in an emergency, and thanks to you, our students now have knowledge that could one day save a life.
We appreciate you both more than words can say!
"Hey There Thursday" was a big success! 🎉 A huge thank you to our amazing local hospital staff who greeted students with bright smiles, warm welcomes, and high-fives this morning! 👩⚕️👨⚕️🩺
The kids were so excited… well, most of them 😄 — the high schoolers might be more excited for summer break than high fives at 8 a.m. 😅☀️
Still, we loved seeing everyone start the day with some community care and Cougar pride! 💙
Thank you to our hospital heroes for showing up and spreading the smiles!👋😊💙
👏Great job 4th Graders and Mrs. Sachtjen! Tonight the 4th Graders presented Famous South Dakotans to the Gregory County Historical Society. 📝
