February 27th

Hello! It was good to be back today-sorry for not doing the blog yesterday. This morning we had our Speech Contest. The 9 finalists from the three classes all got to give their speeches in front of 4 judges; Mayor Merkes, Mr. Dillon from SCA, Mr. Gillespie, and Mrs. Wallace. After tallying their scores, the top three winners were Jenna Abel, Ashley Siegel, and Rachel Hardginski. Jenna did her speech on Teddy Roosevelt, Ashley did her speech on her cousin Sara, and Rachel did hers on Steven Curtis Chapman. Jenna and Ashley will go to Maplewood on March 17th for the city-wide competition. Congratulations!!!
