Tenkiller Student Council were treated yesterday to an exciting outing at Topgolf in Rogers!

These outstanding men and women are excellent leaders and role models for YOUR Tenkiller school and they should be commended for their leadership! They earned this trip with their positive actions every day!!!

Now the question you may be asking is, "who was the best at hitting a golf ball?" Well, that is a highly debated topic amongst everyone. But "best" is highly subjective and may actually be hard to determine as, judging by their swings, they all look like they are trying out for Happy Gilmore 3!

Thank you Mr. Cleveland for leading our Student Council all year and thank you Ms. Patty for all your assistance along the way! Tenkiller appreciates all of you!!!
