In light of Red Ribbon week, Mrs. Nichols, our high school counselor invited motivational guest speaker Hunter Baughman to speak to 6-12th grade students. He was very engaging and inspiring speaker. Our student had the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about how Hunter has overcome his disabilities to accomplish his dreams. Thank you Mr. Baughman for inspiring all of us to keep working to achieve our goals, no matter what our circumstances are. You can read more about Hunter below and visit his facebook/website to find out more.

As a kid, he played soccer and basketball. It wasn’t until 14 his passion for fishing led him to fishing bass tournaments. Hunter had a boat before he had a truck to pull it!
