Do you enjoy fixing computers? Are you a tech geek? Mrs. Bebout is looking for computer interns to assist her with solving Chromebook issues. If you would like to be a part of the intern team, please see her in the library. You will become a district certified technologist intern! If you are in 8th grade, you can continue your internship and assist with technology at the high school level.
Homework club has started! It will be held on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons from 4:05-5:05 in the Library Media Center. This will be an optional time where students can come, check their IC (or come ready with an assignment), and have time to get work done. There will not be any bus transportation, so students and parents will need to make arrangements for pickup!

No Place for Hate club is officially kicked off and started for the year! Students are currently working on what the pledge promises for the school might be for this year. An example from last year was ,"I will respect and appreciate those different from me." We will then make a banner and invite the entire school and community to sign the pledge promises. Those interested in joining for this important work and helping make our school more inclusive to all should speak with Ms. Cook or Ms. Palms.
