Cross-Country Meets

            Michelle Fuchs took the bronze medal in the Class A Division at the UIL State Championships Nov. 11.  Paced by Fuchs, the Lady Bearkats placed sixth as a team.

            The team had advanced to the state championship meet led by Fuchs, who placed first at the Region 1-A meet.

In winning the District 8-1A cross-country meet, the Lady Kats were paced by individual champion Michelle Fuchs with a time of 12:07.5.  Three others placed in the top 10 individually: M’Lynn Niehues was third, while Jessica Hoch and Allison Jansa finished fifth and sixth, respectively.  Adding to the team totals, Anna Flores finished 17th and Leslie Jansa finished 25tth in a field of 56 competitors.

The boys’ team finished third in district competition, making them eligible for the regional meet.  Team members are Samuel Sanchez, Anthony Hoelscher, Roger Alvarado, Kendall Goodwin, and Brandon Bednar.

Fund Raiser for Reading Program

This year, we are raising money to purchase the incentives for our supplemental reading program, the Accelerated Reader, through a fund raising program called General Mills Box Tops for Education.  Our school gets 10 cents for each Box Top we collect.  The more we collect, the more cash we earn.  Our goal is to raise $250 by March 31st.  This simple fundraiser requires no door-to-door selling by the children and it costs nothing to become involved.  We would like to encourage the entire community to help by saving General Mills Box Tops for Education.

This year, General Mills has expanded the Box Tops for Education program to include Betty Crocker products.  That means the Box Tops will be available on over 330 General Mills products!  

If everyone saves Box Tops, the cash will add up quickly and we will easily reach our goal.  We may even surpass it!  Please help support the students in the community.  There are collection boxes available at Halfmann’s General Store, the Glasscock County Bank, and the Senior Citizens Center, along with our main collection here at the school. 

Thank you for your support.
