This is being posted on behalf of Michelle Krog, NHS Organization and Freshman Class: "Michelle, I just wanted to thank you for having the kids carry the flag for us in the parade this Saturday. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY …I just wanted to share the feedback that I was given from Sharon Day about the kids behavior. She said they were one of the best group of kids she had worked with. She was very impressed. They were very well behaved and very eager to do anything that was needed. KUDOS to you and SLATER HIGH SCHOOL. We will be mailing a check for $200.00 to the school. And again thanks so much."
