Big Sandy Schools would like to extend a HUGE Thank You to Big Sandy Organics for all their volunteer work for us lately. They have been helping set up the lunchroom tables at the Elementary for the past couple of months, giving our janitor crew some much needed time to focus on other chores. They have also started working on the High School Track. They removed all the old railroad ties, and have cleaned up the track. THANK YOU for your Service Big Sandy Organics!
