It's been a busy and successful week in Apache Land! Our 3 book club teams that moved on to the district competition competed against 3 HMS teams and one team from KMS. We took 1st, 2nd and 3rd place! Team Tejano, who took 3rd place lost to their own Apache teammates by 1 point! Congratulations to the Book Slayers and team GTV who will be moving on to city competition on April 6th!










We are so proud of our Apache Choir! They got a 1 in concert and a 1 in sight reading, which means they brought home a sweepstakes trophy!!!



Shout out to our 4H club and Mrs. Crain for helping to beautify our library by repotting the library plants! They turned 4 plants into 10 by separating them, and repotted another. It was very obvious that some were beyond overgrown! 🤪





A few dress up and pajama days coming your way!
