Another busy week at Arnett Public School has come and gone. On Monday, several students took their ag projects to the Ellis Co. Livestock show. They have been working hard with their projects prepping for these shows, and their hard work is paying off! Several kids from Arnett made the sale list. The sale was held Tuesday night in Shattuck. Please join us for the Arnett Local Premium Sale this coming Tuesday, Feb. 14th at 6:00 in the Arnett Baptist Fellowship Hall. There will be a meal and auction to support our students as they showcase their projects. The Woodward District Livestock Show and Premium Sale in Woodward is also coming up, Feb. 17th-28th. If you’re free or around Woodward, stop by and support our students and all of their hard work.
The Wildcats hosted their last home regular season basketball games Tuesday night against Erick. The Lady Wildcats took home another win, and the boys ended up with a loss.
Wednesday night was the Night at the Library. The theme was “Hearts, hearts, hearts!” There were multiple activities going on throughout the school, including valentine orders, making Valentines with the Art class, read-alouds, and cow heart dissections with Mrs. Dowler and the science club! Many students came and enjoyed all the fun!
District basketball games were kicked off Friday evening in our home gym. The boys took on the Forgan Bulldogs. They knew what to expect since they had faced the bulldogs earlier in the season so they came prepared. The boys fought hard the entire game going into double overtime, but unfortunately they came up short in the end losing to the Bulldogs. Keep your heads up, boys! We are proud of you.
Saturday the district games continued. The Arnett girls took on the Forgan Lady Bulldogs as well for the championship game. Our girls came out ready to play and came out on top with an 87-50 victory. Congratulations, ladies! We can’t wait to cheer you on in Regionals!
Between school and ball games, Mrs. Burcham and her Beta members were working hard to complete their Valentine’s cookie and balloon orders. Every year the Arnett Beta club makes their famous heart shaped sugar cookies for Valentine’s Day. They are loved by many! They finished up their cookies Sunday afternoon. This year they made and sold 520 cookies!
