A big thank you to Grove Education Foundation for Excellence and Grove Rotary Club from the Grove Alternative Education and WINGS Academies. GEFFE awarded the Academies a grant which funded a program to build custom fishing rods. Grove Rotary provided a grant for the purchase of jig-tying vises, tools, and supplies. These two projects have come to the point at which small groups of students have been able to crappie fish with fishing rods and jigs they have made with their own hands. We would also like to give recognition and a Thank You to two local businesses. Grand Lake Sports Center provided a wealth of knowledge and extra supplies for jig tying. Honey Creek Landing Marina provided a safe, comfortable place for supervised students to fish.







Junior Parents/Guardians
Yesterday the information below on the upcoming testing went home with the Juniors. There is a lot of good information for both you and the students. The ACT will be on April 9th, and the other two days of testing will be April 16th and 17th. These tests are a graduation requirement. If you have any questions please feel free to contact Mrs. Clark at jclark@ridgerunners.net.
ACT Scores are used in many ways in Oklahoma: college entrance, awarding scholarships, gauging student progress, assessing schoolwide curriculum and instruction, and many other ways! The scores from these tests will be recorded on each student's high school transcript.
