Emmetsburg Community School District

Our E-Hawk girls' basketball team wanted the opportunity to honor a few very special staff members who have made a lasting impact on their lives. Each player chose a current or former staff member who has supported, encouraged, and believed in them along the way, and presented them with a personalized shirt as a small token of appreciation.
