Since the pandemic many schools have dealt with participation issues in their clubs and sports and one local school district is continuing to rebuild. 

On the WHOW High School Road Tour Thursday, Argenta-Oreana High School Athletic Director Mike Williams told Regional Radio that they are beginning to recover from a numbers issue that resulted in multiple forfeited varsity football games at one point. 

This issue goes further than the football team. Williams states the boy's soccer team only had 11 players this season, but he looks forward to welcoming the 8th-grade students that will come out next year. 

Amanda Spinner is the FFA Chapter Sponsor, and she has dealt with similar issues. They took a hit in membership during the pandemic, but since then Spinner has grown the program up to 90 students. 

The Argenta-Oreana High School staff looks forward to the future of their programming and student body. Get more information at argenta-oreana.org
