On Monday, the first day of Red Ribbon Week, Sargent Tausan from the Sheridan County Sheriff’s Office came and talked to our K-5 grade about being drug and alcohol free. Thank you Sargent Tausan!

On Thursday, September 21st, 4th graders enjoyed the morning at Chadron State Park with the Bird Conservatory of the Rockies. We were able to watch birds get banded, learn about different species and study the habitat at the park. Also the students got to ride in the new bus!
Every year the Gordon Lions Club provides every third grade student at Hay Springs with their very own dictionary. Today was our LUCKY day and we received our wonderful gift. These dictionaries are greatly appreciated and used continually throughout the school year. The Third Grade Classroom sends a big THANK YOU out to the Gordon Lions Club for doing this.
Who says learning only takes place in the classroom? These elementary students found 4 different praying mantises on the playground during one recess! For those who didn’t know, praying mantis insects are beneficial, making excellent garden friends and keeping down bug populations naturally to help maintain a healthy ecological balance in the garden…or on the playground.
