They learned about healthy habits from the medical assistant, Mrs. Kohut, and then tracked their healthy choices in order to be placed in a monthly drawing. Our two Healthy Hero winners for the month of February were T.J. Durham and Nikolai Radonjich and the winners for March were Emma Semelsberger and Eddie Ahlstrom.
