      Hurley Students Practice Preventative Care |  
          |  |  
          | Students and teachers from the Hurley K-12 School work hard to 
          clean off road grim from the mural that they painted just last year. 
          The young lady scrubbing away is one of the shadows painted on the 
          north wall of the under-pass . She has significantly outgrown her 
          shadow from last year, but not her desire to contribute to her 
          community.  Hurley K12 teachers, Terri and Shelli are also 
          working to to keep the school project from falling into a state of 
          disrepair. |

            | Hurley High School 
            Students Receive  Scholarships For Academic Excellence
 |  
            |  |  
            | Hurley - May 22, 2009 
 More than ninety Scholarships were awarded to students of the Hurley 
            High School during the 2009 Scholarship Night. While several 
            students earned more than one scholarship, many individuals earned 
            their rewards for academic achievement. Quite an achievement for a 
            small school district.

              Hurley 
              Horticulturist in Training |  
              |  |  
              | Hurley - May 27, 2009 The after school students at the 
              Hurley School received some garden training recently from members 
              of the Range Master Gardeners. Wisconsin/Michigan Master Gardener, 
              Lynn Adams completed another gardening project involving the local 
              school students. |  
              | Early this spring the students of teachers
              Amy Swarz and Carol 
              Saari planted tomato seeds. Since then they have been 
              caring for the seedlings which have successfully grown into 
              plants. The students transplanted their tomato plants in larger 
              containers to take home for the summer. The extra plants grown by 
              the students were also transplanted and were brought to Garden 
              Estates to be given to the residents. |  
              | Some of the students, with the help of the Master Gardeners, 
              also planted  flower planters in front of the school 
              building. Each year, the after school students plant annuals in 
              the urns that you see in front of the school. This year there was 
              a great deal of wind during the planting, making the job a little 
              more difficult. None-the-less the kids did a great job!

                              Gardeners plant flowers along Silver Street, which

                              program is sponsored by the Hurley Chamber of 
                              Commerce, the Lionesses and the City of Hurley. 
            The City will be responsible for maintaining the flower until fall. |

            memorial , the monument to the Miners and Loggers who established
