What a perfect day for a bike giveaway! Nearly 30 students received a bike today thanks to our very own Mr. Roy.

But the best part was surprising Mr. Roy at the end! KATV showed up and interviewed him to be featured next Tuesday (5/21) as their Person of the Week! What a wonderful way to recognize someone who does so much for our school.
