Our Student Leadership Council is hosting a food drive next week (October 15th-18th). Students will turn in non-perishable food items into their homeroom classes. Outside donations can also be dropped off to the school. The class that collects the most cans will receive a breakfast party. We will also be allowing free admission into next week’s home football game against Ft. Gay with the donation of five food items. The graphics below were created by Student Leadership Council members Avery Fry and Levi McSweeney.

Yesterday, we started some new classes in the 7th & 8th grades during the related arts rotation. These follow the Project Lead the Way Gateway curriculum and expose students to STEM careers. We are excited to see what knowledge these students will gain from these classes! They will be one semester long, so a new group of students will be able to take these classes in January. Our 6th grade program has not yet begun, but we are looking forward to its implementation soon as well! If you are interested in learning more about this curriculum, please follow this link: https://www.pltw.org/curriculum/pltw-gateway?utm_term=pltw&utm_campaign=Brand&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_acc=6763382768&hsa_cam=16250547598&hsa_grp=136474172314&hsa_ad=582603359175&hsa_src=g&hsa_tgt=kwd-1363421909&hsa_kw=pltw&hsa_mt=b&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIreifmc6BiQMVR2NHAR27XBZcEAAYASAEEgKJQfD_BwE
