#PointerNation News

All hail the Queen and King! A big congratulations to Kennedy Kabat and AJ Rury who were crowned as royalty at Thursday's #PointerNation Homecoming Spirit Rally!

#PointerNation and Darlington teamed up for Cure All Colors Cancer Night Tuesday evening! What a special event -- and yes, the Pointers came home with a 3-0 volleyball victory.

The National Wrestling Hall of Fame, USA Wrestling, and FloWrestling announced its preseason rankings for high school girl wrestlers for the 2022-23 season. Kudos to Kylie Rule who is ranked 16th in the nation at 132 lbs and Dealya Collins who is ranked 23rd in the nation at 127 lbs!

Have you heard? The Dodge-Point Girls Cross Country team has taken over the top spot in the Wisconsin Cross Country Coaches Association State rankings! A reminder you can follow along weekly at: https://www.wisccca.com/coaches-poll-2022

#PointerNation is a great place to be, largely because of our amazing staff. Please consider making a nomination for the prestigious Herb Kohl Educational Foundation awards! These honors are some of the top an educator in the state can receive and we have been fortunate to have a state winner five of the last six years, which is very impressive.
