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 freshman Lex Garretson and sophomore Kendall Lawson

for being named Spartans of the Week! (Week of February 10):

“Lex had a GREAT game vs Banks County on Monday in our Region Tournament. Down 13 points beginning the 4th quarter, Lex shot the Spartans back into the game by hitting 4 three pointers. Only a 9th grader, Lex comes to practice every day with a great attitude and a great work ethic. He is a great teammate and very coachable!”

– Don Hurlburt, Head Coach Varsity Boys Basketball

“Kendall has had a tremendous season and is leading the Spartans with her ball handling and playmaking ability. She makes everyone around her better and her court vision both in transition and half court sets is special, averaging 6 assists per game over the last 5 games. She loves seeing her teammates do well and we are excited to be a part of her continued growth both on and off the court. Nice job Kendall!”

– Brian Olson, Head Coach Varsity Girls Basketball
