Thank you to all of the students at Kimball Schools who participated in the coloring contest for National Construction Safety Week sponsored by ICS. The participation was impressive with 212 total entries district wide! With that many artists and this much talent it was hard to limit this to 1 winner in each school. We ended up picking 9 total - one from each grade in the Elementary and one each from the Middle School and the High School. Hopefully the students were able to get an idea of how important safety is for all of us! If this is any indication of what the Kimball Students are capable of there will be no limit to where they can go! Winners will receive a gift card and a tour of the construction site if they would like one. --Brad Lund, CSI Site Superintendent
Congratulations to all winners: Prek - Emmet Massman, K - Elowyn Stork, 1st - Emerson Heberling, 2nd - Claire Beck, 3rd - Chloe Schrieber, 4th - Isaac Tellers, 5th - Alexis Lesnau, MS-Samantha Nistler, HS-Savanna Christophersen.
