made by my great-gnandfather (W. L. Wright) in the very first issue
of "The Collinsville News" printed 121 years ago. He had
moved his newspaper equipment and family here from Ellsworth, Kansas.

A draft version
of only the intro page for 2020 Grad pages is online today.
I will try
to start adding an individual page daily starting later this week.
Even under the best circumstances, this is never a "Fair"
process. Some kids I have many photos to choose from ... some
kids I've never heard of. And I wasn't planning to do senior pages
this year ... until just a few weeks ago. -- Ted Wright 4/22/2020

All
2020 Senior pages are online as of Thursday May 14th -- No pages
are finished -- these are works in progress ... |
|
|
I have 4 senior
pages online so far ... and hope to pick up the pace to have them
all available before the May 15th "end of school". None
of the pages are complete, and I will continue to add to some
of them until I retire at the end of June. -- Ted Wright 4/30/2020

To honor our
2020 Senior class, our school will shine the stadium lights at both
the football and baseball fields every Friday for 20 minutes. This
message of both recognition and appreciation will take place from
9:00-9:20 PM every Friday Night until the end of the school year.
-- Brad Cantrell 4/15/2020
We further hope that this will be a symbol of one day soon being
able to gather with our Cardinal Family.
We do ask that there be no congregating of groups at either location.
The safety of our community is paramount, and we must continue to
abide by the CDC guidelines. |
Collinsville
students have not seen the inside of a classroom since Friday March
13th (24 calendar days ago) as they officially begin six weeks of
"Distance Learning" today (April 6, 2020) at their homes.
Students, parents and teachers have adapted daily to a rapidly changing
world that is responding to the COVID-19 pandemic with the primary
tool being isolation. The coronavirus is spreading from country-to-country
and state-to-state and community-to-community and household-to-household
at varying rates with varying impacts ranging from mild symptoms
to death. Everyone is making sacrfices and many are risking their
own health as they serve others. Please continue to do your part
and try to obtain the best outcome possible during and after this
historic event. -- Ted Wright -- April 6, 2020 |
