Congratulations to Patricia Oats & Kali Old Bull for being two of Box Elder School's Good News Shout Outs of the Day!

Not only are they present for class on a consistent basis, they find time outside of their scheduled meets to digitally meet up and have study sessions. If this doesn't scream dedication to your education, I don't know what does! Furthermore, during such a time of uncertainty we are reminded to "check on your neighbor, make sure they are OK" and that is exactly what they are doing. AWESOME job ladies, keep it up!"
