95% Club - What do YOU think?

In an effort to improve the 95% Club activity every quarter, I want to know what suggestions students have to make that activity even more enjoyable for those who earn 95% attendance.  What do you like or dislike about that activity time?

They caught me sweeping up the popcorn after the students left.

EHOVE's got talent!

OK, who has talent?  We will have our annual Talent Show on February 17 in the Commons.  In the past, I have been surprised at the hidden talents of our students.  It is fun to see another side of students that we normally would not see at school.  I encourage our students to try out.  Tryouts will be announced later.  Stay tuned!

I am impressed by our students

Those who have seen the participation in our student organizations last year compared to this year have to agree that our students have really shown their pride in the activities our student organizations have to offer.  The SkillsUSA local competition that took place this week was very impressive.  I am so proud to see our students step up to the plate and participate in the various competitions.  However, it goes beyond just participation.  I am proud at how our students have excelled with their efforts in wanting to learn more and become better.  They say winning is not everything.  You can’t lose if you put full effort into something.  You will always come out a winner.

It pays to come to school

We had over 260 students participate in the 95% Club reward activities. Students who achieved 95% attendance during the first quarter were treated to an afternoon of volleyball, basketball, various board games, and snacks.
