This morning, two of our sixth grade students were honored at the John Ourth Breakfast at Streator High School. Every year, students in exiting grades are chosen as representatives from their school. These students are honored for their leadership skills, academics, and overall great character. We are very proud to have had Adelynn D. and Landon G. recognized at this event. Congratulations!
