The middle school staff members chose 8 th grader, Mia Korgol, as the September Student of the Month. Mia participates in volleyball, basketball, track, band, cross country club team, swim team and Student Council. Mia believes she was chosen as student of the month because she is involved in STUCO and sports teams and is a good role model to other students in classes, STUCO, sports and other school
related activities. Mia is the daughter of Kristin and Brandon Sneath. Written by Amanda Hawkins
Mrs. Beye’s Personal Finance class learned how to work together with roommates to create a budget today in class. Lots of decisions to make when dealing with other people and their financial beliefs.
SEPTEMBER STUDENT OF THE MONTH
Conner LaRosa, son of Eric and Debbie LaRosa
has been awarded Student of the Month for
September.
Conner thinks he was selected because of his
great work ethic, and his willingness to do his
best in everything he does.
Throughout his high school years, Conner
has participated in football, basketball, track, FBLA, HOSA, and FFA.
When asked, Mr. Hirsh said, “Conner always has a positive outlook in class. He is always willing to joke and get involved in my lessons. He also keeps the rest of the class in line. But his positive energy doesn’t stop in the classroom. He is willing to help anyone who needs it and follows the rules. He’s a great example for others.”
Tomorrow we are trying something different for lunch. Instead of pizza, we are having a calzone. Calzones are just like pizza, but with a bottom AND top crust.We hope you all will sign up to eat a school lunch tomorrow!!! BON APPETIT
Health Occupation Students of America (HOSA) are competing in Night @ the Lab at Cloud County Community College in Concordia, Kansas tonight.

Students participating are: Emma Bigham, Jacelynne Griffith, Paytn Siegrist, Kevin Gehrke, Brody Brown, Lainey Monnington, Hannah Oswald and Jameson Davis.

6th Grade Cultivating our Future Expedition
In the Cultivating Our Future Expedition, students investigate agricultural technologies and the factors that affect food production in America. They also learn how most people can contribute to feeding the world through urban farming practices. Students plant their own radish garden in a clear plastic glove and make observations of the garden at different stages of growth. Students also use the engineering design process to design, construct, and test a greenhouse that meets certain construction requirements.
7th Grade Artificial Ecosystems Expedition
We are preparing biospheres to observe the cycle of how matter transfers through ecosystems. In this expedition students have also conducted experiments to test the effects of acidic and basic solutions on plant growth, and how different colors of light effect the rate at which photosynthesis occurs.
