Thank you to everyone who took the time to take the survey and provide valuable feedback to the district.
Please congratulate Cameron Kresko on being selected for the Minneosota Honor Society State Level Scholarship. Cameron was 1 out of 4 students in the entire state of Minnesota to be selected for this scholarship. This scholarship has very extensive application process that is based on leadership, service, character, and academic criteria. It also specifically looks at how the individual has made an impact with school culture and in the community. One of the requirements was to attend the state leadership banquet which occurred last night in Owatonna. The scholarship is $500 and will be awarded after completion of his first semester. Cameron plans to attend Creighton University. Congratulations Cameron!
