Wildcat Family,
Today, we received notice that some students of the District allegedly made comments about bringing firearms to school. In response to these reports, we immediately contacted law enforcement and the juvenile office to report to the school to address these concerns. No weapons were present on campus today nor were any students or staff in danger. While we cannot comment about individual student disciplinary matters, discussion about firearms and school property is never acceptable and violates the District’s discipline code. As such, we are taking this concern seriously and will continue to cooperate with law enforcement, and take all necessary measures to ensure the safety of students and staff.
Sincerely,
Jana Williams
Winona R-III Superintendent
Due to heavy rain in Bakersfield, the HS Baseball game that was scheduled for today has been canceled.

**Senior Spotlight: Sophie LuDene Kile**
Sophie LuDene Kile, daughter of Matt and Meagan Kile and sister to Sadie, is a student who enjoys horseback riding and spending time with her family at the river. She is also an active participant in the school's volleyball team. Reflecting on her high school experience, Sophie's most cherished memory is winning the quarter finals on her home court. She identifies Mrs. Ipock as her favorite teacher, citing her encouragement and willingness to provide support is why. A key lesson Sophie has learned is the importance of kindness, recognizing that individuals may be facing unseen challenges. She anticipates missing playing volleyball with her friends the most when asked about what she'll miss about school.
Sophie’s favorite movie is Eight Seconds, her favorite meal is Chicken Alfredo, and favorite subject is English. Her future plans are to attend college to become a veterinarian and her plan for her senior year is to win state again! Sophie would like to be remembered as being a kind friend.
Sophie’s farewell message to her underclassmen is to take your ACT as many times as you can. When Sophie was asked about the people who influenced her the most, she said her parents. They have always supported everything she did, and they let her make adult decisions, and they work super hard so she can have nice things. Some fun facts about our Sophie are that if she had one meal for the rest of her life, it would be a grilled cheese sandwich with homemade fries. Something few know about her is that she likes to go on walks with her mom and their dog, Josephine, and she wants to go to Montana and Wyoming. The last book Sophie read was The Great Gatsby and it was for her English class.
We extend our best wishes to Sophie for her future endeavors and hope she utilizes the knowledge and experiences gained during her time here.
