The boys' BB season is winding down! Mark your calendars to watch the game on Fri night in Nelson (last JV game) & at subdistricts next week! It's a black out theme for Tues -- get out and support our Dragons!
See you tonight in Superior at 6:30 for the girls' sub-districts!
We are so proud of this girl! Junior Carlee Hinz went into the State Tournament with a hurt shoulder but was performing SO STRONG!
She has had an incredible season and showed so much perseverance. We are sad to report that she had a season-ending knee injury in the semi-finals -- but will still be bringing home a 6th place medal!
Dragon Nation is so proud of you, Carlee! 💜❤️🩹💛
🚨Good Luck, Carlee!🚨

The Thayer Co. Spelling Bee has been rescheduled to Monday, Feb. 24th at the Thayer County Activities Center on the county fairgrounds in Deshler. Please note the location change due to the courthouse being unavailable.
The event will run at the regularly scheduled time. The 5th/6th graders will start at 9:00 AM with the 7th/8th grade to follow (plan for approximately 10-10:15 AM).
Our plan is to use the 4-H room for the Spelling Bee and the American Legion Room for grading/administration of the event. Park on the south side of the building for best access.
Good luck to the Lady Dragons on WEDNESDAY at sub-districts! Theme for the game: MERICA!
Go red, white and blue - Go Dragons!
