NHS Family Science Night Volunteers

Family Science Night is THIS THURSDAY February 20th!! NHS members should arrive at the LS Barrett Hall at 5:15pm. Check in with Ms. Neves at the door to find out which station you are working, and then you will get your pizza dinner. After 15-20 minutes of pizza and fellowship, there will be a short orientation to prepare you for the night and get you familiar with your station.

Volunteers should NOT park in the PS/LS parking lot, but rather in the normal senior/junior US lots. We need to keep the PS/LS spaces available for the families attending Science Night.

Remember, this is MANDATORY for all NHS members (unless Ms. Neves is already aware of your approved conflict). Even those who did not complete the station preference form are expected to attend, and you will be placed at stations according to need rather than your preference.

Congratulations to sophomore Lila Nasworthyfor being named

State Swim Meet Result:

The team performed well with the girls finishing in 8th place out of 43 teams and that was with only 4 swimmers! Pretty impressive!

The girls relay team swimmers were Riley Harding, Addie Savage, Ella Dillon and Bailey Tomlinson.
