2020 6th Grader: Aedan Althoff

My name is Aedan Althoff.  Some of my interests include 4H, triathlons, hunting, raising chickens, running, swimming, and hiking.  In my family, I have one brother, one sister, my Mom, my Dad, my dog, and 17 chickens.  My brother, Higdon, is in 1st grade, and my sister, Emma, is in 9th grade. My dog, Simon, is a mini American Shepherd and I have eleven meat birds and six layers.  My family likes to be outside and stay active.  Some things I will miss about Sacred Heart are the amazing lunches, the kind staff, and cantoring at mass.

Every week until the end of the school year, we will be celebrating a sixth grade who will graduate this year from Sacred Heart! This week’s sixth grader is Halle.

My name is Halle Recker, and I’m 11 years old. My dad’s name is Cory, and my mom’s name is Emily. My dad is a farmer, and my mom is a chiropractor. I have 3 sisters: Marissa, Karli, and Lydia. Marissa is 19 and is finishing her freshman year at the University of Nebraska Omaha. Karli is 17 and is finishing her junior year at Monticello High School. Lydia is 15 and is a sophomore at Monticello High School. We live on a farm outside of Hopkinton, Iowa. I like to ride my horse and spend time with my heifers. I am going to miss the school lunches and church on Thursdays. I will also miss the small classes and the teachers.
