Kimball High School Welding class is in need of your help!!
Welding students are in need of donations and project ideas!! Why not get rid of old metal that you've been hanging onto by donating it to the high school for students to practice their welding?
If anyone has scrap metal lying around that is usable please help your local agriculture students out! Mainly what is needed for small projects includes horseshoes, horseshoe nails, washers, and round steel rods, but any donations including square tubing, angle iron, pipe and any other metal that is usable you want to get rid of is accepted!
It is also project season and the students need ideas! If you want something built and just do not have the time or need something fixed please let us know!
These students are willing and in need of hands on welding experience and real life situations to improve their skills and knowledge.
If you or anyone you know can donate to the welding class or has project ideas please let us know it would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you for your continued efforts within the community to support your local high school agriculture program and giving these children the opportunity for real hands on learning!

Intro to Foods made fajitas!!!

Come to Mrs. Walker's room, Room 7A at Mary Lynch Elementary during Parent-Teacher Conferences. You can enter a drawing for a gift basket. All you need to do is go through a powerpoint on a computer. This powerpoint is the Annual Meeting for Title I. It is for all parents/guardians of students grades K-6th. It only takes 2-5 minutes and will give you a better understanding of Title I and what Schoolwide Title I is. Hope to see you there!
