Congratulations to the Artists of the Week--Briggs and Cassidy.

Elementary students learned about Fire Prevention and Safety today. One station included a trailer where students were able to touch a door to determine if it was hot from a fire, along with a stove that created smoke to set off a smoke detector, so students would evacuate to a safe location. The second station was to learn more about firefighters.
Thank you to Fire Chief Brad Davidson and the La Junta Fire Department for putting this very valuable and educational experience on for our students.

Good Luck to Brody and Caleb as they compete in the State Golf Tournament at Pueblo County Club today and tomorrow.
