First paper in June

Yes, June already!

As the 2014 graduating class at Unity Composite High School prepares for final exams and graduation, principal Maureen Robertson is also preparing for a new chapter in her life. After starting her career in education over 40 years ago, “Mrs. R” will be retiring at the end of this school year. Read about her career, plans for the future and the retirement event held for her at UCHS May 23 in the June 2 issue of the Unity Wilkie Press-Herald.

Also in the next Press-Herald:

  • a story and photo from the big farm safety day held for area Grade 4 and 5 students at the Unity SK Agroplex;
  • results from the UCHS Junior High Track Meet;
  • the latest, and possibly last, SSAI newsletter; and
