Some Raiders had a fun opportunity today - art therapy at our local coffee shop, Roasted.
The goal of our trip was to connect with others, engage in a therapeutic activity, and most importantly, laugh!!!
As the students sipped on their coffee, they shared with others the vision behind their painting. It was beautiful to see new friendships formed. At the end we celebrated each student and their painting.
Art Therapy is an excellent way to begin discussions on emotions, decrease anxiety, enhance social skills, and build confidence! It was a great day to be a Raider!
Congratulations to the 2025 Homecoming Court!

The Freshman Raiders came up short against Havana tonight with a final score of 31-28. It was a back and forth physical battle between the Ducks and Raiders.
The Raiders look to bounce back this weekend as they play in Princeville to take on the Princes and Tremont Turks in a round robin.
Mr. Servis’ Physical Science classes are preparing to “wave” goodbye to the month of January with three active labs pertaining to the topic of waves. The three classes practiced measuring the wavelength of a wave generated by a length of rope. From this information, the speed of the wave could be calculated. After this, they used laser pointers and mirrors to reflect light and measure the angle of reflection. Finally, we wrapped up the week by testing how far a laser pointer light could be reflected around our High School hallways.
On Saturday night, before the games against Princeville, the Midwest Central basketball program honored all former players in attendance from Midwest Central, Forman, and Green Valley. Players from 2017 (Kobe Watts) to 1960 (J.D. Proehl) were in attendance. Some of the alumni also suited up and played a hard fought game in front of the home crowd. Thank you to all who attended and we look forward to continuing this tradition again next season.
The F/S Raiders travel to Havana to play the Ducks tonight. Tipoff is scheduled for 6:00. Good Luck Raiders! Game Location: 501 South McKinley Havana, IL 62644
