Monday, students in Junior English were able to celebrate Halloween with various activities. For one activity, students had to draw a Halloween scene together, but there was a catch: each student had one part of the whole scene to draw, and they didn't know what they would draw until it was their turn.

Ms. Rookstool believes Morgan got student of the month because “she is a reliable worker who goes above and beyond what is asked of her.

HMS Student of the Month - Leland Urban
The middle school staff members chose 8th grader, Leland Urban as the October Student of the Month. Leland participates in football, basketball, wrestling, archery, and summer baseball. Leland believes he was voted as the student of the month for 4 reasons. The first reason is he works hard in class and even if he is absent for a day, he works hard to catch up on the work that was missed. Second, he stays focused in class, even if people around him are messing around. The third reason is he follows the Railway Expectations in all places in the school setting, even the hallways. The 4th and final reason is he is kind to everyone, even if they are not friends. He will be kind to them and work with them in class group settings. Leland is the son of Stacia and Dean Urban.
