On the last day of school, May 26, Boswell Elementary students and staff recognized their significant achievement of another successful year, while also marking that they will have the distinction of being the last of the Blackhawks.
Students released balloons, high-fived each other in a parade by classes around the halls, and exited on busses underneath a water salute from local firefighters.
Recently the Benton Community School Board voted on a resolution to close down the elementary school, and so next year Boswell Elementary students will be attending Prairie Crossing Elementary School.
