The Gorillas have been busy this semester! Successful events like Trunk or Treat, Community Clean Up Day, Operation Gorilla Family, and Angel Christmas Tree have served valued community members. In addition to these community efforts, the Gorillas have also excelled in academics, character and various clubs offered at USD 393. Finally, there were incredible wins in sports, with the Cross Country team competing at the state level, our football players earning Wheat State League Honors and the wrestling team building momentum with top placements. Great job GORILLAS! We are excited to see what you achieve in the coming semester.
The High School Girls basketball team enjoyed some team bonding today at the Alley in Salina!
Gorilla wrestling hit the road to Russell this morning to cap off their busy week! It was another successful day for the team. Richard Hardin and McKenzie Rohr both finished in 2nd place, Aryana Burge finished in 3rd place and Aiden Shepard and Matthias Baxa finished in 4th!
Happy Holidays from Mrs. Stein's class!
Before break we enjoyed decorating Christmas trees with our friends and families.

In our last unit of 2024 for Senior 101, we focused on Event Planning, Marketing, and Entrepreneurship. Each class developed a business plan for a Holiday Pop-Up Drink Shop, where we served festive drinks and snacks to students and staff before and after school today. Together, the classes raised $100 for Operation Gorilla Family

Thank you so much for your generous contributions to Operation Gorilla Family 2024! Your donations of food, canned goods, and purses for Moms were overwhelming. Several organizations also donated specific items to help meet the needs: Abilene Machine with 11 turkeys, the Solomon Wranglers 4-H Club with 40 hams, the Solomon Gorilla Foundation with laundry soap, DS&O Electric Cooperative with 140 boxes of cereal, and Katie Ontiveroz's handmade lap quilts for seniors. Together, we raised over $7,000! Every family on the Angel Tree was selected, and wrapped presents are awaiting them for Christmas. Every donation will make a significant impact. Your support truly embodies the spirit of community and generosity! Here are a few photos of Student Council helping sort the donations and some completed holiday baskets.
