We’re sending a huge thank-you to the Kelly High School athletes who visited Kelso C-7 last week for Red Ribbon Week!
They delivered a fun, high-energy presentation about the importance of making good choices and taking care of your health. Our students were completely engaged — and we couldn’t be more proud of the Kelly athletes for being such positive role models. 🙌
Your energy, kindness, and message made a lasting impact.
