"Send the Bus", sponsored by Durham School Services, collected donations for Moore, OK tornado victims last week. All of the Kearney R1 schools participated and gave more than expected. The Kearney High School Students donated over 1,600 items alone. Among making summer plans and studying for finals, the students rallied together for this meaningful act of kindness. The Jr. High and KHS put together helper crews to collect and load the school buses.
