Thank you for Home town support when the band came home! By Theresa Ingermann I would like to say thank you for all the support the community gives our school district. When my son heard the sirens this afternoon he knew exactly what it was for. He grabbed his three brothers and ran outside to wave and jump up and down at the band coming home. He is only in 3rd grade, but has done this every year so far. We live by the school so they were able to see just how much support these older kids get. Thank you, Adair County, for making this happen for these younger kids. - Theresa Ingermann 2016-11-14 06:21:54 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
