Junior ROTC Security Appreciation Week Potluck
The third week in September was National Security Officer Appreciation Week. To celebrate our security professionals' hard work and dedication, Battlefield’s Junior ROTC Cadets hosted a potluck for these individuals. Cadets had the great experience of talking to our school’s protectors, while eating a delicious meal. If you would like to learn more or join our school’s Junior ROTC, you can contact your counselor or either instructor in room 1161. Our AFJROTC instructors are Col Dan Vasenko and SMSgt Dave Shuler.

SAT Tutoring During Flex
NHS members will soon be providing SAT tutoring in the Library during FLEX each week in the library during flex Tuesdays or Wednesdays, excluding Flex 8/Advisory, alternating between SAT Math and English every week. Both tutors and tutees may flex in for one or more blocks. Tutors will be assigned 1-3 tutees, based on the number of people in attendance. Tutors will either use online resources (Khan Academy recommended) or create their own curriculum and receive an extra hour that can count towards NHS inside hours.
Be sure to check out the flyer on the Activities board outside the Commons or in the Library for more info or to sign up to review services, view the Sign Up Genius.
Note: This does not replace after-school NHS tutoring which will resume soon, as well. Stay tuned for additional announcements.
