We have reached the halfway point of the month of October.  The first quarter of the 2013-2014 school year is complete and you should receive your child's report card next week.  Student eligibility will start over and not be completed for the first two weeks of the second quarter.  We will run the eligibility report for the first time on Friday, November 1st.  It is helpful if parents reinforce to their child to get the beginning of each quarter off to a good start by completing assignments and preparing for quizzes and tests.  

The fall sports season is winding down the Lady Thunderhawks will compete in the league volleyball tournament this Saturday in Palco and Damar.  The XC teams will compete at the Regional meet next Saturday, October 26th.  We are proud to host this meet at Wheatland High School, it begins at 2PM and will qualify teams and athletes for the state meet in Wamego on November 2nd.  Sub-state volleyball is also Saturday, October 25th in Sharon Springs.  I encourage you to come support our athletes and watch them compete.  

One reminder to all patrons is Wall of Fame Nominations need to be completed by December this year.  Criteria for a nominee is 15 years of service to the district.  The nomination form will then be passed on for review by the Wheatland Alumni Association.  The recognition ceremony is scheduled for homecoming during the high school basketball season.
