JH HAL: Perkins Co. Senior Center
Students learned all about the services, activities and opportunities available at the Senior Center in Grant. As a non-profit, much of the Center’s funding is thanks to the Thrift Shoppe. Students helped sort, organize and label items.





From Superintendent Jolliffe:
"The junior high and high school will have a late start tomorrow, Feb. 13th, due to dangerous windchills and added time for travel. Inter-High at NP is cancelled. Elem. Parent-Teacher Conf. remain on schedule. No school Friday & Monday (Staff PD)."

6th Grade ELA:
Students are meeting deadlines in an effort to create their own class book. Each student is writing and illustrating a story about a monster. The goal is for students to be able to purchase their own published book.

Superintendent Jolliffe:
"Good evening from Perkins County Schools. School will be closed Wednesday, February 12th, due to the weather. No activities or practices will be held on Wednesday. Decisions about Thursday will be made tomorrow. Enjoy your snow day!"

The tradition continues...21 years and counting. Periodically, the HS Girls BB Team holds a FT shooting contest. The winner gets to sign the “Shooters’ Trophy.” Congrats to Hannah Bishop for earning the right to add her name at today’s practice.
