The Eureka School District is looking at different potential avenues to start an FFA Program for the 2024 – 2025 school year. The 7th-12th grade students participated in a straw poll and well over 20 students are interested in this opportunity. The district has determined that one of the biggest hurdles for adding FFA to our school district is finding the right person or group of people to lead the program. If you are interested in being an advisor, co-advisor, or just someone who is willing to help get this program started, please reach out to Mr. Weismantel at 284-2875.
The track meet scheduled in Onida on Tuesday, April 16th has been changed to Monday, April 15th. The meet will still start at 1:00 PM on Monday, April 15th in Onida. Go Thunder!
