I just received word, 3:25 p.m. October 27, that there is a food pantry on the south side of the fair building. If you would like free groceries, please head over there now. I am not sure how long they will be there. Thank you!
Reminder that the Jr. High will be going to the Willa Cather Center tomorrow, October 28. They will leave Tryon at 6:30 a.m. and pick up in Cody Park at 7:05 a.m. Students need to bring their permission slips or they will not be able to go. They will be back to North Platte around 3:30 p.m. and in Tryon around 4:05 p.m. They will not be going to Stapleton to drop off kiddos.

Monday, our data collection team and administration had some follow up training on a new data collection system, eduCLIMBER. This program will be a great asset to our district and help our teachers and administration with future decisions on best practices.
Meet our new secretary! Ms. Bethany Keller. She is taking the spot of Shelly Apperson, who left us last week for a new job opportunity. Stop in and say "Hi" to Bethany!
Until we meet again Mrs. Apperson. Friday, November 15th was Mrs. Apperson's last day at McPherson County School. She has a wonderful job opportunity to work at MPCC in Broken Bow and do some side work with her husband at the radio station. We wish you the best of luck Shelly!
