Freeman Public isn’t the only school district celebrating homecoming next week. The Menno community will also be enjoying a week of school pride starting Monday and culminating with a parade, pep rally and football game on Friday, Sept. 15. These are the candidates standing for royalty. For queen (from left): Maggie Miller, Ashton Massey and Kaelie Derby and, for king (from left): Isaac Fergen, Aiden Heckenlaible and Seth Ahalt.
