Seniors Addyson Trimbell, Reese Underwood, and Caragh O’Connor chose to honor Mrs. Rosa, Ms. Dieter, and Mr. Wagner.

Walton CSD senior Amelia Somers had an impressive showing at the World Dairy Expo in Madison, Wisconsin. The show is the largest dairy show in the world.
She was awarded Reserve Senior and Reserve Grand Champion of the Junior Show.
Amelia’s cow, GITANA, is eight years old, and was in the aged cow class. The animals that reach this level have already won at each step before it, and there were 15 in the class.
In a cow show, the Reserve Senior Champion and Reserve Grand Champion are titles given to cows that are judged to be the second best in their respective categories. The Senior Champion is typically an older cow that has already produced offspring, and the Reserve Senior Champion is the runner-up in that category. The Grand Champion is considered the best overall cow in the show, and the Reserve Grand Champion is the second best overall. These titles are important because they recognize the quality and characteristics of the cows, such as their conformation, udder quality, and overall health.
Join us in wishing Amelia congratulations for an impressive and superb showing! Way to go!

Townsend Elementary held an evacuation drill earlier this week. During the drill, staff and students evacuated the building, following established procedures. After exiting the school, they went to pre-determined safe areas before returning to Townsend. The drill helps teach students what happens should situations arise where an evacuation is necessary.
Thank you to the Village of Walton Police Department for helping with this drill!
