Six Neligh-Oakdale Students Medal At Scholastic Contest

Neligh-Oakdale was one of many area schools that made the trek to Norfolk on Wednesday to take part in Northeast Community College's Scholastic Contest. Not only did they travel well, but they returned with lots to be proud of also.

Six students earned medals for their work on the day. Celina Knievel, Hailey Bixler and Marcus Reed led the way, taking first in the respective categories. Knievel finished first in music, Bixler took first in library usage and Reed took first in small engines.
