Information for the middle school basketball game tonight: If you are coming from Hwy 169 please note the bridge outside of LeRoy is out. Below are detour options around that closure. There is a gravel road prior to the closure on Trefoil road that takes you around the closure to the north side of town. Otherwise you can turn north on Wayside and then west on 12th to Shetland. Turn left on Shetland and go south into town.

It was a busy day in the HS Lighthouse world! Members split up in smaller teams to deliver lessons to various age groups throughout the year. This morning a panel of students delivered a lesson to 8th graders, while another team this afternoon tackled "Recess Buddies" duty with the Kindergarteners. Or maybe the Kindergarteners tackled them? Either way, memories were made, and lessons were learned!

Congratulations to the newest inductees to the Central Heights Chapter of the National Honor Society. Scholarship, Leadership, and Character aside - this incoming class of inductees amassed in excess of 1000 hours of service to others before even starting their NHS journey tonight. We can't wait to see what more is to come when they put their heads together!
