Twenty-six student athletes in the Francis Howell School District recently signed their National Letters of Intent to continue their academic and athletic careers in college.

For 65 years, hundreds of volunteers have given their time and talents to help with Old Newsboys Day. The event is held annually the Thursday before Thanksgiving. Volunteers stand on St. Louis-area street corners waving newspapers and collecting donations. This year’s helpers were up with the sun. They started just before 5 o’clock Thursday morning. Standing outside in the cold, collecting cash until all of the newspapers were gone.
