The Central Lee FFA conducted their annual member service/labor auction recently. The auction provides members with some connections to potential employers in the community and matches students with people who need services and perform tasks around their homestead. Many times these relationships lead to longtime employment for the student and “hands-on” learning for the student. Students are allowed to utilize some of the donated hours towards their community service requirement to graduate. We want to sincerely thank this years auctioneers and auction ring helpers! (L-R) Travis Bell from Bell Auction Company, Landon Rudd(chapter Sentinel), Jim Huff from Sullivan Auction Company, Dusty Wellman from Wellman Cattle Farms, Pat Steffensmeier from Sullivan Auctioneers, and Mason Holvet representing The Steffes Auction Group. We thank the school administration, parents, community and all the businesses who supported this successful event and all of our activities throughout the year. #CTEworksforCL
National Special Education Day is celebrated every year on December 2! This day commemorates the anniversary of our nation’s first federal special education law, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, signed by President Ford on December 2, 1975.
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act made public education available to all eligible children with disabilities across the nation and ensured special education and related services were provided for those children. This law was a critical and necessary step on the path to making education and resources equitable for all children – a goal we are committed to in the Central Lee Community School District. This day honors the milestones that have been achieved for special education so far and reminds us of the continued progress to come. #Proud2bCL

Instructors from SCC came and presented to the Accounting I class. (From L to R) Trish Hopper, Kevin Rosenberg, & Renee Smith, all from SCC's Business Department talked with students about pathways in Business at SCC and possible career options. They also shared the benefits of a junior college and the seamless transition to SCC from Central Lee. They left the class a huge nugget in something called the "Last-Dollar Scholarship". Students who enter a program in high-demand can actually go to college for free. Please contact SCC or Mr. Van Ausdall for more information.
