Congratulations to our December Cardinals of the Month. This month we recognize those students who demonstrate the character trait of generosity. We are very proud of you all!
For the first hand sewing project in Home and Careers, students made a 3-dimensional holiday ornament. They had to trace a pattern, cut two pieces of fabric, and sew around the edge of the fabric. Then, they turned their project right side out, stuffed it and completed sewing it together. Some students made more than one ornament to take home for their families or came up with different designs. All agreed that this was fun….but also challenging.
Picture retakes are tomorrow!
There will be no late bus transportation today, Monday December 9th. Clubs have been cancelled for the day. Sports will continue as scheduled. Thank you.

Six students from the Latin American Studies class participated in the American Legion Oratorical Competition. Each student was expected to write an 8-10 minute speech on some aspect of the Constitution and how it relates to our duties as a citizen. Each student performed their speech in the auditorium in front of members of the American Legion. Mason Decker came in first place, Bly Korzeniecki came in second place and Landen Crandell came in third. Congratulations to all students involved!
