The Platte-Geddes JH and HS students and staff competed in a penny war collecting close to $500. The money collected allowed the students to send 21 boxes full of christmas cards and goodies to a SD National Guard Unit stationed overseas, to thank them for their service.
Mrs. Mills nominated Rylan Burket for the GNC for showing kindness in the STEAM room. Rylan volunteered to wash the paint brushes and pallets for Mrs. Mills so she could help the other students with their projects. Thanks for modeling service to others and kindness, Rylan!
Berklee Veurink received the GNC for always being willing to help her friends, even if it means stopping an activity that she herself enjoys, according to her teacher, Mrs. Sandy DuFrain. Thanks for modeling kindness and service to others, Berklee.
