Pleasanton Schools, and especially Seniors, are so thankful to the Pleasanton Lions Club for all they do to support the school and community each year.

Yesterday, Edie Janitscheck and Lily Williams competed in the Regional National Civics Bee at the Merryman's Performing Arts Center in Kearney. All 7th graders wrote essays in January about "How they can make a difference in their community or school." Lily and Edie's essays made the top 20 finalists to compete at the Regional Bee, which consisted of 3 rounds. In rounds 1 and 2, they each answered 20 multiple-choice civics questions. The top 5 from that round advanced to round 3, which consisted of a live Q & A over their essays. Edie barely missed the finals round, placing 6th in rounds 1 and 2. Lily was a finalist and received 2nd place, earning a $250 prize. We are so proud of both girls and the extra time they put in studying outside of school to represent Pleasanton Public Schools! Go Bulldogs!

Good luck to the Boys & Girls Track Teams today in Gibbon!

Save the Date for Honors Night next Monday, April 27th at 7:00 pm, North Gym!

It was a warm and windy day for our annual Walk at Lunch, but the kids still enjoyed it and cooled off with a popsicle treat at the end!
