Hula Hoop, Anyone?
Wellness hosted their first Wellness Wednesday of 2023 on January 18th. The theme was “Focus on Fitness”. If students showed us a fitness app they use, added a new one, or did a little hula hoop so they could enter a drawing for a Smoothie King card. 10 cards were awarded.
The following students won a card which was sent to their first period teacher listed to the right - or the first class they attend daily.
Shira Babalakin - Johnson
London Margona’ - Snyder
Kenad Mamillian - Crase
Mason Stansbury - 2nd period
Natalie - Mrs DeBuys
Namya Serray- Pace
Donald Ojede - Caveda
Heather Hines - Reshetov
Katie Johnson - Roth

Attendance Office Volunteers Needed!
This is a regular once or twice a month shift either in the morning or afternoon. Volunteering in the attendance office is a great way to not only be involved in the high school, but is also a great way to learn about the importance of regular attendance for your student. It’s easy and is a great way to serve our school in an area where parents are crucially needed.
For more information, please email Ashley Mullins at ashleydmullins@gmail.com
