Athletic Awards Banquet

Murtaugh High had their end of the year athletic banquet on Friday April 10th. It was a little different than years past, the dress was Semi-formal and Terri Andersen and Rhonda Reed made a wonderful dinner. A great deal of work went into organizing this, with Coach Johnson & Mrs. Ainsworth working along side our Learn & Serve and Natural Helper Students.
