Late May in Ironwood

Graduations are taking place throughout Ironwood County schools. Maple Valley and Hillcrest High Schools have the largest classes at 124 and 98 respectively. In neighboring Dodge County, Triton High School require that their seniors finish presentations on their individual projects before graduating. Though teachers in Ironwood County laud Triton for this excellent educational process, administrators in Maple Valley and Hillcrest fail to grasp the vision for educational improvement.

In other Ironwood County news, the early warm weather and heavy rains have turned plants, gardens, and trees into a lush vision suitable for Country magazine. However, the boys at Bill's Café worry that this much rain means drought later in the summer. "It's the law of averages," most say.
