Hello Knight Family:
Happy New Year! We are excited to kick off a fantastic second semester filled with cherished traditions. Highlights include the Corn Bowl (next Friday), Student Council Winter Follies, our spring musical Mamma Mia, the FFA Ag Banquet, Dessert Theater, Senior Trip, Prom, Honor’s Night, and, of course, Graduation. And that’s not even counting our traditional extracurricular activities such as musical concerts, basketball, scholastic bowl competitions, bass fishing, softball, track, and baseball! These activities are sure to make the calendar months fly by.
On Thursday, January 9th, we will have a noon dismissal for our School Improvement Day.
Friday, January 10th is the 2nd Annual Corn Bowl! This exciting school-day event will take place at Cerro Gordo High School, where the boys' and girls' basketball teams will face off. We will start the school day with a pep rally and then load buses heading to Cerro Gordo High School. Students from Bement, Cerro Gordo, and our school will come together to cheer on the Knights and the Broncos. Our band and cheerleaders will also be performing to add to the excitement. Cerro Gordo High School will provide lunch for our students, and we'll return around 2:15 p.m. The community is invited to help pack the gym and create an electric atmosphere! Varsity Girls tip-off at 10:00 a.m., followed by the Varsity Boys at 12:00 p.m.
A quick reminder that students are required to stay for study hall for the first part of the semester. (We will announce the date that this changes later in the month.) Our first semester report cards will be posted to students’ Skyward accounts on Friday, January 10th.
Mrs. Seegmiller
