PDA Reminder
Students should avoid intense displays of affection while at school. Holding hands or a quick hug with your partner is ok. Making out and excessive affection, not so much. Talk to Monty if you have questions.
Diversity and Inclusion Club
Would like to introduce a few remarkable humans to you for Native American History month. Today, Wilma Mankiller was the first woman principal chief of the Cherokee Nation. Before becoming chief, Wilma was an activist that fought for Native American rights. She wanted Native Americans to be treated fairly in the United States. It was Important to Wilma that Native Americans knew their heritage and traditions. As a coordinator, deputy chief, and then chief of Cherokee Nation, Wilma worked to empower her people.
Random Recognition
Random recognition celebrates the achievements and community efforts of you and your peers. Today we recognize an 11th grade Theatre major – Hanna Osman. Hanna consistently puts in the effort to produce her best work. She’s a thoughtful collaborator who works well with everyone and isn’t afraid to advocate for herself to ensure she fully understands each assignment. Hanna also takes what she learns in class and applies it to her performances after school — a true sign of dedication and growth. – Hanna, your positive energy and perseverance make you a joy to work with.
