Last week, one of Mrs. Johnson's Textiles classes went to Bethany Home to help with an FCCLA project being completed by Allison Burchell and Cheyenne Vahl. While there, some of the students made a connection with Wilma Jones, and were amazed to find out that she would be turning 103 in a week! Yesterday, they returned with flowers to wish her a Happy Birthday! Pictured with Wilma are Naviannah Lennemann, Kierslin Franks, Sayge Grotrian and Lauren Starkey. Makenna Anderson was ill and unable to visit.
