Special thanks to our friends at People’s Community Bank of Bunker for paying Pep Club members entry fees last night so our students could come out and support the Lady Eagles in the semi-final round of the district tournament.
Even though the Lady Eagles volleyball season came to an end, the girls (and Pep Club) stayed strong throughout the match and didn’t go down without a fight! #ProudToBeAnEagle



We are very proud of these elementary students for their efforts in the 1st Quarter! They were recognized for their hard work and positive attitudes last week by being awarded the Most Improved (blue certificate) or the Eagle of Excellence (green certificate)! Keep up the great job, kiddos! 💚🦅💚
Special thanks to 🍕Salem Pizza Inn 🍕 for donating a free kid’s buffet to each awarded student!
