The phones at the schools and district office are not working this morning in case you are trying to telephone them. We have a call in to the company and they will hopefully be back in working order soon.
A huge thank you to those who came out to see "Puffs" on Friday and Saturday night! The show was an amazing success, and the kids were happy to see you there! Thank you so much for your continued support of the JCN Theatre Department!
I enjoyed watching Ryan Feldkamp, sr., play in the Highland All Star Game on Sunday. He played very well with 19 points and 6 rebounds in the game. Congrats!
The seniors finished listening to Pretend She’s Here, our read aloud book, today. We celebrated with chips and salsa and brownies. On April 4th we will start another book Three Things I Know are True by Betty Culley, a book written in prose for National Poetry Month.
The Juniors and Seniors were all invited to the prom by this year’s prom servers. It will be a “roaring” good time!

One last day wintery day and then hopefully spring weather arrives to stay over spring break! Wishing you all a great spring break following school tomorrow. Note: If your road has major issues, currently, please reach out to your bus driver to give them a heads-up.
