Great job, Blayne Brawley, on a wonderful first print — an impressive start to many creative projects ahead!
The other photos showcase more prints created this week — proof that the possibilities are endless with this amazing tool now available for our students to design, experiment, and bring their ideas to life. 🎨💻
We are incredibly grateful for their generous donation, which helped provide 121 snack packs to students in the Winona R-III School District! Our amazing FCCLA students took the lead , purchasing, packing, and distributing the snack packs throughout the school. Their hard work and dedication continue to make a positive impact on our campus and community!
If you would like to support this project and help keep students fueled for success, please reach out to any FCCLA member, donations are always welcome! Together we all win!
On Saturday, November 8th, there will be a watch party to cheer on our volleyball girls! Doors will open 30 minutes before game time. Game time will be announced on Friday evening after the conclusion of the semi-finals game. This event is free of charge.
Thursday, November 6, at approximately 8:45 A.M., your Winona Lady Wildcat Volleyball team will be leaving for the State Final Four tournament in St. Joseph, Missouri. Below is the planned route. The bus will turn right, heading North as we leave the school. We will go to 3rd St., make a circle around the square, then travel back in front of the school before leaving town. Just a reminder for those that like to see us off on 60 HWY, we will be heading WEST this year, as the Final Four will be played in St. Joseph rather than Cape Girardeau.
Thank you for your support.
