School's in Session




Southern Snake Valley started school August 15. Mrs. Phillips has thirteen kids in grades K-2 in Garrison. Mrs. Yacapraro has 18 kids in grades 3-6 in Baker. I'm not sure how many kids are in junior and senior high in EskDale, but I've seen them getting on the bus with the early morning sun not high over the Confusion Mountains!

Some upcoming school events:

Wheel-a-thon September 11: Garrison kids bike 8 miles, Baker kids bike 16 miles to raise money for school activities. Volunteers are needed and can call the Baker school at 775-234-7333.

Harvest Festival, November 9: This is a fundraiser at Baker Hall. Potluck dinner followed by an auction. Auction items and folks to buy those items are needed.

Christmas Program, December 19: This may be the best-attended event in the valley. Watch the adorable kids as they put on entertaining plays and share their musical abilities. Sometimes someone with a white beard comes at the end.
