The English department and the McPherson County students want to thank The John Russel Applegate Foundation for our new Smartboard. We purchased it with the funds received through a grant from the John Russell Applegate Fund administrated by the Mid-Nebraska Community Foundation.



The Nebraska State Nursing Convention will be held in North Platte on February 5th. This is a great opportunity for any high school student that is interested in the health field. Register online at https://www.nssna.org/2022-state-convention.


Another packed week. We are testing at the high school this week. Make sure your student is eating healthy and getting plenty of rest.

Mr. Connell’s 8th graders presented on digital citizenship for 7-12 . Great information on how to stay safe on the internet.



Happy holidays! Before we left on break Mrs. Hermoso’s freshmen class had to do presentations on something they learned about first semester. They also made projects and had demonstrations to go with it. Great job kiddos!
