Last Wednesday, Glencoe-Silver Lake High School hosted the annual “mock crash” scenario to inform senior students about the consequences of drinking and driving. An accident scene was set up and several volunteers and emergency services in the area worked to simulate injuries sustained in a crash and the care needed.

Laura Becker and Courtney Kressin, juniors at Glencoe-Silver Lake High School, have been actively involved in a wide variety of FFA and ag-related activities during their young high school careers, and that involvement was recognized recently when they were awarded state FFA degrees.
And these degrees, for accomplishing supervised ag experience projects, are not bestowed on just anyone; they are earned by FFA members for being active in the many ag-related opportunities the FFA program offers, and meeting the state degree demands.

The Glencoe-Silver Lake boys’ and girls’ track teams saved their best performances of the year for the conference championship meet in Hutchinson on Thursday, May 16.
The boys finished in second place with a team score of 107 points, 25 points behind Hutchinson with 132 points.
The Panther girls found themselves in seventh place, scoring 50 points on the day.
Ryan Kuester started things off for the boys by setting a school record in the 100-meter dash with an 11.03 first-place finish. One-one hundreth of a second faster than Dan Gould’s 1993 record of 11.04.
