Principal McKeown's report included news of the La Harpe's three school Christmas programs, a Junior High Talent Show, and many other ways La Harpe students and staff were planning to celebrate the holidays.
The sports co-op is bustling with the activities of 5/6 boys' basketball and 5/6 girls' volleyball hosted at Dallas City and 7/8 boys' basketball and 7/8 girls' volleyball at La Harpe. The gymnasiums and buses are seeing a lot of use this time of the year with dual practices and many games at both locations.
