Our Pocahontas Redskin baseball and softball teams showed up strong for NEA Sports Media Day! Proud of these student-athletes and excited for the season ahead.

Students had a great opportunity to attend the Kiwanis meeting recently at Black River Technical College! They learned about the Kiwanis Club’s upcoming 21st Annual Golf Tournament and the many ways our community can get involved and show support. We appreciate opportunities like this that connect our students with local organizations and help them learn the value of community involvement.

Mark your calendars!
