SIGN UP FOR BEE KEEPING CLASS


Have you ever met someone who absolutely loves a hobby? Well we found someone here in Lee County who loves bee keeping and can share his vast knowledge in an unerstandable way. Mr. Harold Frantz is a humble gentleman who claims to know a little bit about bees, but don't let the "good old boy humility" fool you. He has decades of experience and knows Bees. Join Him every Monday in June, starting on 01 June from 5:30-7 to learn about bees. He'll regale you in class and take you out into the field for some quality hands on experience. For novices to experts, this class will be about raising bees and honey production. Register now so we can get Bee Suits here for the field trips.

Need Help Paying For College?

It’s time to start preparing for college and I’m sure there are a lot of you asking “How will I afford to go college?” A lot of people know about financial aid but some don’t qualify yet still need help paying for college.
There are other forms of paying for college such as Scholarships. Right now there are several Scholarships up for grabs. Also Juniors get a head start and find out what you need to qualify for these Scholarships so by May of your senior year your applications will be ready to be submitted.

The Lee County Republican Women’s Club; will sponsor a $100.00 scholarship for a
Graduating female. Applicants must write an essay. Sorry boys only the girls get this one!

Lion Apparel; will be rewarding a $500.00 scholarship to a graduating senior. Applicants must have a 2.5 grade point average (G.P.A.) and demonstrate extra-curricular and community involvement. Hurry and get involved with school and the community if you want this one!

The Lee County Masonic Scholarship Fund; will reward a $1,500.00 scholarship to a
Graduating senior that plans on attending college, technical school after graduation.

Desires to go to college and has a financial need. The applicant should have a B+ average
