Thank you!

Thank you to all that supported the Dakota Tom’s Fundraiser by the Post Prom committee this Spring.

Over 2,666 sandwiches were sold by 25 students in the 8th – 11th grades.  A Small but Mighty group of sales men and women!

We appreciate the hard work that these students put into this, as this is the largest fundraiser

that the post prom group has each year. 

The class with the most sales was the Sophomore class -with over $5430 worth of sales. 8 out of 10 students sold and have won the class lunch on us.

Great job class of 2028!
