Raising Funds for Tornado Victims

Many of our lives have been touched by the tornadoes that hit Mayflower and Vilonia Sunday evening.

 

Two fifth graders, Makayla and Naomi, have stepped up to the plate to help these victims.

They will have money jars set up in the cafeteria at lunch, and one on the front table in the lobby during the day, to collect money to be given to Salvation Army.

 

If there is a more direct personal need for someone, the money will be given directly to the needy.

Congratulations!!

Congratulations to Cammy McKenzie!

 

Her work represented Carl Stuart

in the State Fish Art Competition!

 

She won Honorable Mention

in the State Fish Art Contest

on the State level!

 

This contest was judged on

both drawing and writing.

 

Congratulations Cammy!

 

We are so proud!
