Even after retiring from PCSD 10 years ago, Mrs. Ruth just couldn't leave us behind—and we’re so grateful she didn’t! She dedicates her time daily to Hill City Elementary's media center, helping our Hawks. She’s also a legend at Heritage Days, known as the “lady who tells stories with the dancing man.” Her passion, kindness, and love for our school make Hill City a little brighter and happier every day!
Thank you, Mrs. Ruth, for all you do!
