The National Honor Society Executive Board went to the Anthony Munoz Leadership Conference last Wednesday. They worked together on leadership projects, heard from leaders in the community like Larry Connor, Brent Suter, and Brandon Saho, and enjoyed fellowship and creative problem-solving!
The Spanish I Honors class built an altar for día de los muertos, as we learned about the culture, celebrations, and traditions. Day of the Dead altars, or ofrendas, are structures dedicated to the deceased, upon which gifts and offerings are placed in order to guide their spirits back among the living just for the holiday.
CRUSADER OF THE WEEK
Mrs. Hasken nominates Senior Austin Wood for Crusader of the Week for AP Spanish Language. " Austin not only has a natural gift for language, but he also puts the time and effort into improving his proficiency, where he has shown great growth. He is often the first to volunteer to participate in class and regularly helps and engages his classmates around him. His passion for Spanish and his commitment to the process of learning another language and culture is evident and appreciated. ¡Felicidades Austin!" Mrs VonHandorf nominates Freshman Brooke Pagnotto for Crusader of the Week for Art 1. "Brooke is nominated Crusader of the Week for her consistent work ethic, high quality of pieces, and connection with classmates. Brooke is very helpful, very honest, and very respectful. She does her best day in and day out and sets a good example for her peers in regard to effort and improvement. She is fun to have in class and is a very talented artist. WAY TO ROCK, BROOKE!"

Each year, the program provides a theme that introduces and builds on the basic concepts of the Teaching Boundaries and Safety Guide.
