We have a schedule change for the Scotland/Menno Trappers middle school basketball games on Nov. 24 at Menno vs. Hanson. Some of the kids are also involved with FFA, so we are adjusting the order of the games. Games will be livestreamed.
4:00 start time with the following order:
6th/7th girls
6th/7th boys
8th girls
8th boys
Games last 40-45 minutes each, so those that are in FFA can plan accordingly.

At our Veterans Day Program 14 Veterans received either a Quilt of Valor or a Quilt of Honor. Four Quilts of Valor were given out and ten Quilts of Honor were given out. Pictured are various recipients and their families.

The National Honor Society hosted their Veterans Day Program today. Four Menno students had the opportunity to present their Patriotic Pen Essays and Voices of Democracy Speech. Those students were 8th grader Audrey M., 8th grader Joanna H., 6th grader Ryian H., and Sophomore Ruby F.

Today we honor those who have given their lives for our freedom. Everything we have is thanks to a Veteran who has fought for our right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We are thankful for everything that they have done and proudly honor them today. Happy Veterans Day!

Today the Middle School Girl's Basketball Team is heading to Avon! There will be a 6th, 7th, and 8th grade game starting at 4pm. Good luck tonight Trappers!
