Last week, Mr. Count's World History class went to the World War II Museum in Eldred.
On Friday, we held our second “Bike Bus” of the school year! 🚴♀️🚴♂️
Students had the opportunity to ride their bikes to school together, led by Chief Cimino. Events like this promote healthy habits, bike safety, and positive connections between our students and local law enforcement.
Thank you to Chief Cimino, our staff members, and all of the students and families who participated and helped make the ride a success. We look forward to continuing this fun tradition!
Reminder: A PTO meeting will be held on Monday, May 18th at 6:30 pm at the Galeton Area High School. We look forward to having you join us!
