Here is yet another example of the great community support our school receives throughout the year! The staff at Stockmens Bank pay money to wear jeans to work. They decided to donate the money raised from these jeans days to help us pay off students' unpaid lunch accounts! What a blessing! Thank you to an incredible group of people!

Our Jr High and High School March Students of the Month are 8th grader Bailey Maples and Senior Calen Faucett! About Bailey, her teachers shared: Bailey greets everyone with a smile on her face. She has been helping in the pre-school classroom and doing the coffee cart and does GREAT! She helps preschoolers with matching their colors and shapes. Bailey is positive in everything she does! About Calen, his teachers shared: Calen is an excellent role model for our younger students. I see him encouraging them and taking the time to listen to them. He is well respected by his peers, and he is an all around nice kid! Plus, he is always willing to help out!
Thank you both for being so great!

Our Crane High School Gibson Tech students have had an impressive year at Gibson Tech! So much so that we have earned "Sending School of the Year" among all of the schools who send students to Gibson Technical Center. To determine what school is in 1st place, the administration at Gibson look at attendance, GPA, participation in Career Technical Student Organizations, and percentage of students who return 2nd semester. As Mrs. Mullins and Mrs. Mease walked around the Gibson Tech building after hearing the great news, instructor after instructor shared with us how awesome the Crane kids are. Thank you to all of our students who work hard at Gibson Tech and represent Crane so well! Let's do it again next year!
