A big thank you to Mrs. Perardi, Mr. Otto, and Dr. Chatterton for selecting our winners today and to our teachers for passing out tickets the last two weeks to the students!
Stay tuned...more fun coming next week.
She states, "It has been fun to share my journey with these students for the past two years. This publishing contract for my young adult fantasy series is an answer to many prayers. Book one of The Treeple Chronicles will be released in May of 2027! "
This is an incredible accomplishment that reflects her dedication, creativity, and passion. We are fortunate to have someone on our team who continues to inspire both inside and outside of the classroom.
ABC Days brought the energy this week. From cooling off with Icee pops, to Jersey day and a little friendly competition with Kahoot in the Kafeteria, we have been making the most of every moment.
It's always a good week when you see smiles, laughter, and a little teamwork mixed in. Thanks to everyone who jumped in and made it fun!
Our senior spring athletes took time to pause and reflect on their journeys by recognizing the hard work, growth, and memories that have shaped their high school careers. Each student gave a heartfelt shoutout to a staff member or coach who made a lasting impact on their success...and those moments never get old.
One of the best parts? Welcoming our junior high and grade school students to join us. It's powerful to see how far these relationships reach with many of the teachers being recognized and helped lay the foundation years ago.
The finish line is getting close, Seniors...make these moments count!
Some groups were really locked in and thinking through their strategy, making it a close competition across the board. In the end, Ms. Anderson's class took the win, and every student earned a prize from the prize cart!
🍩 Donut Day Reflections 🍩
Today was all about learning from the past and looking ahead. Students took time to reflect on the choices, habits, and moments they're ready to leave behind. They had a lot they 'donut' want to repeat.
We heard things like:
"I donut want to procrastinate again in high school."
"I donut want to wait and let my work pile up."
"I donut want to be scared to speak up about something that bothers me."
"I donut want to almost fail a class."
"I donut want to get too many tardies and get a detention again."
"I donut want to 'presentate'..." (yes, the students have created their own word.).
"I donut want to wear skinny jeans again."
Overall there was honesty, growth and even a little humor mixed in, and that is what the day is all about . Thank you to our students for being real and willing to grow and to Mrs. Perardi for organizing Donut Day!
Looks like Kirk found a loophole in the rules!
Today, students are putting their guessing (and math!) skills to the test by trying to figure out exactly how many pieces of candy are in the jar!
Some have taken this very seriously by using estimation strategies and calculations to get as close as possible. Shoutout to Mr. Otto for modeling the jar so everyone could get a better idea of its size before making their guesses.
Now we want to hear from YOU....what's your guess??
Stay tuned to see who comes the closest!
No School- Thursday, April 2nd, Friday, April 3rd and Monday, April 6th.
Enjoy!
Not only did our students put their skills to work on a real-world project, but their hard work also paid off...literally. These 5 custom-built tables raised $1,000 for the G &C class!
We are so proud of the craftsmanship and community spirit shown by these students. Huge thanks to the Knox County Fairgrounds for the partnership and to everyone who supported this project!
At the closure of the assembly, we had a special announcement from senior Zach Rassi, who announced our winners of the Wild Wild Respect Week poster contest:
3rd Place: Mr. Dubre's Farmer Time
2nd Place: Miss Miller's Farmer Time
1st Place: Ms. Mosley's Farmer Time
Our students embodied the message of acceptance and inclusion today, and we could not be more proud of them for being the one!
