    Andy Carlson|Updated Dec 26, 2014

    This time of the year in Havre Public Schools the sets take center stage.

    Andy Carlson

    The meaning of 'A tradition of excellence' I am not certain what the end of the year brings for you, but for me it certainly seems to be a time of reflection. One of the things I have been pondering is how did December arrive so early this year. It seems like yesterday I was filled with excitement and nerves over the start of the 2010-2011 school year.
