February 2024

2024 Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame inductees and committee members.

We welcomed our 2024 Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame inductees back to Cory-Rawson on Friday, February 9.  Melana Maxie ('83), Jason Searfoss ('90), and Tara Smith ('94) were celebrated during the school day and at that evening's basketball game for their amazing accomplishments.

Thanks to our committee for their work in shaping this wonderful recognition and to our sponsors:  Anderson Tractor Service, Citizens National Bank, DNC Hydraulics, Lori Collins, and Masterpiece Signs.  We're hoping to expand the display in the CRHS commons (old HS cafeteria) with a heritage wall featuring memorabilia.  If you're interested in helping make this a reality, please contact me or our district office.

In our hearts, the green and gold,

Jay Clark, Superintendent
