Valentine Middle School fifth graders recently participated in the Niobrara Valley Naturefest at the Fort Niobrara Wildlife Refuge where six different biomes converge. The students engaged in activities to learn more about diversity of the ecosystems along the Niobrara River, the water cycle, bird identification and habitats, as well as products obtained from trees. A one-mile hike gave students the chance to view beautiful Fort Falls, the Niobrara River, and interesting flora and fauna.
Due to forecasted thunderstorms, tomorrow's track meet has been moved up to a 9:00 am start. We will depart @ 6:00 am
Valentine Middle School records were meant to be broken! Congratulations to both our Boys and Girls 1600 Relay teams and to 8th grader Isaac Cronin in the 200 Hurdles for placing new records. Isaac holds the new record at 28.35. Boys Relay team of Dominic Beebout, Deklin Titus, Trace Buechle, & Isaac Cronin clocked 4:01.61, Girls Relay team of Maeli Patterson, Aubrey Benson, Wrigley Greenough, & Christen Larson clocked 4:36.86.
