FFA sponsor Brooke Petty states: "This group of Freshmen did an incredible job yesterday at our District Novice Conduct of Chapter Meetings contest, which includes some memorization of opening/closing ceremonies and then a full meeting using proper parliamentary procedure. The top 2 teams from each room moved on to finals to determine final placings and State Qualifiers. After getting through some initial nerves, they made it into finals and eventually placed 1st! Please congratulate them on their hard work if you see them this week!"

16 Trojans make All NCAA Football
Greater Salina Community Foundation came out and presented their Scholarship Bootcamp to Seniors. They do a great job of going over scholarship dos and don'ts, how to find scholarships, resume building, letters of recommendation, writing a personal statement/essay, and I love how the emphasize thank you cards. At the conclusion of the presentation seniors put their names into a drawing for a $1000 scholarship. This years winner is Daniel Kejr!

JH BB vs Sacred Heart today! Good Luck Trojans
SES freshman had their College Tour at Fort Hays State University. First, we met with our college admissions representative, Devan Fleglar about the admission process and what FHSU had to offer our students. Next, we had a tour that included: academic buildings, a typical classroom, the fine arts building, the library, a dinosaur, two different dorms, their union, and McMindes Cafe. You will be proud to know that the Trojans emptied the ice cream machine not once, but TWICE. It was a big treat!! We concluded our day with a driving tour of campus and the town.
Freshmen were left with information on how having a good GPA can affect their scholarships. You can check out FHSU Freshman Merit Scholarships at this link: https://www.fhsu.edu/admissions/scholarships/freshmen

We had another author/illustrator visit today! Lauren Castillo is the author of several books that we got to listen to today including Nana in the City. She is also an illustrator for her own books and for several other authors. She told us that she has to practice a lot until she really likes her final product for the book. We even got to learn how to illustrate Nana's Cat like she does in her book.
Ask your kiddos what they thought of the author visit.
