Laura K. Girton was a beloved teacher, principal, colleague and friend at Bismarck-Henning Elementary School for over 25 years. Laura began Mileage Club and loved encouraging the students in their quest for hitting their marathon. The Fun Run started a few years later as a way to help buy supplies for Mileage Club and do special projects at BHES including playground equipment, PE equipment, and most recently, help purchase ChromeBooks. In 2019, the Fun Run was renamed to the Laura K. Girton Fun Run to honor the amazing legacy Laura K. Girton left at BHES.

An update from Angela Bush Photography:
Hello Bismarck Parents!
Thank you so much for your support and patience during this time!
All print orders have been submitted to the lab and will be available for either pickup in Danville or I can mail them to you for a flat $4.
We extended the order date to allow those who have been affected by Covid-19 more time. Since business is moving slower than normal we will expect prints to arrive early next week.
Please reach out to let me know your preference!
I will keep everyone. update on when prints arrive!
Please stay safe, take advantage of this precious time together and stay hopeful friends. No season lasts forever!
Warmly
Angela Bush
