Last evening was one of those great occasions when we get to celebrate our young people – their achievements, their perseverance and their successes. The 6th graders had their annual DARE presentation and awards night. It was a special evening, which is part of the 6th grade end of the year field trip. We celebrated the students' elementary careers and wished them well as they begin a new phase in their lives--junior high school.
