High School Choir students blew down with the wind to the nursing home today to sing some classic Christmas songs! We enjoyed the birds in the aviary, they sang along! We hope we spread the residents some holiday cheer!

Best of luck to our Wildcat/Dragon wrestler, Carlee Hinz, at her meet in Fairbury today!

Thank you to the Cooper Foundation and congrats to the DPS electric car team! This group was the recipient of the foundation's grant for $2,000 -- which they will put towards a generator for the program. Would you like to donate to this program? Contact Sam Hoops or Dana Epley!

The first and second graders went over to Parkview Haven this morning for their service project! They delivered Christmas cards they made to the residents, sang some Christmas songs, shared Christmas jokes, and created a really long paper chain that they were very proud of!
