We always love it when the alumni stop by to visit. We would like to thank Jim Krummel (class of 64) for stopping by and donating his ''wife's (Roxie
Wheeler, class or 66) heritage emblems off of old cheerleading uniforms and letterman jackets. We would also like to honor their service they provided to the district in years past. Roxie taught at the elementary school and Jim served on the school board during the time that they lived in the community. It was a pleasure giving Jim a tour of the school.
