We are so thankful for community support and especially thankful for Gerry Berberick for his recent donation of time and effort in a project to help one of our students! Payton struggled to shoot a bow, particularly holding the bow and then pulling the string back, in the 7th grade Archery unit in Phy. Ed. due to his unique abilities.
Thanks to Gerry, who happens to be Mr. Ouren's father-in-law and an archery guru, Payton was able to get a bow just right for him to use!! Gerry did a lot of research to make this happen and received a bow from OFC, then modified to to make it comfortable for him!
Payton is hopeful to get more comfortable with the bow so he can get a deer someday!
Thank you, Gerry, for your time, efforts, and collaborating with our community to make this happen for Payton!!

5th graders have been learning about the Renaissance time period during reading in CKLA. Recently we learned how Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. In order to paint it he had to strain his neck upwards for four and half years. Today 5th graders pretended they were him by drawing under their desks.
