We're gearing up for a Magical Homecoming Week!
Today's the day! Join us in our cafeteria for the Student Council Blood Drive until 6:00 p.m. Check out these lifesavers! Walk-ins welcome!
My day ended in Mr. Talkington's Ag Science II class. The class was reviewing for a quiz tomorrow on plant classification. These kids know their stuff and I expect great scores on their quiz!
Coach Johnson and the Lifetime Sports kids enjoyed the beautiful morning playing soccer! Students have spent the last few weeks learning the ins and outs of soccer and as you can see are competitively putting their skills to use! Who doesn't love a PE teacher that plays with them?
My day ended in Algebra II will a group of upperclassmen. They were working on identify key elements of quadratic functions. I'll be brief with this post because i was thankful it was them and not me! Let's celebrate them and their mathematical greatness!
Mrs. Winder's English I class is gearing up to read a short story by Guy de Maupassant. Students read quotes to each other from the quotes and then wrote predictions about what they think the story is about based off the readings and conversations with peers. Next students shared their predictions with the peers in their group and formulated one group prediction to share with the class.
Community partnerships at their finest! These ladies are using their talents to better our community with support from our local United Credit Union. We have some extremely talented youth and are grateful for Ms. Dunn's support and encouragement of them!
Your Junior High Lady Indians get the win tonight over the Paris Coyotes 11-2. Aggressive base running made the game extra fun to watch! Tonight I'd also like to give a shout-out to our amazing officials who wear blue for our teams and work to call a safe and fair game!

Our Victory Flag continues to fly! We're currently celebrating Richard Hayden who was selected to the Northeast District Choir who will perform on November 4th. Richard has big goals in music including making the state choir and we'll be here cheering him on! Proud of you, Richard!
Despite a loss, our fans were there cheering on the kids! Your Indians are home the next two weeks. We hope to see you next Friday when we host North Callaway!
Our Junior High students joined as members of the band and cheer squad tonight and added a ton of spirit to the night! Our band played hard through to the end and will perform tomorrow at the Prairie Days parade at 11:00 a.m. We are grateful for our student section that continues to cheer us on, right along with our amazing cheerleaders each week!
Thursday afternoon took me to 7th grade math for a review of adding and subtracting integers. Students used a song or poem to remember the rules of negative numbers. They did a great job of working together and showing support to one another if they needed it!
Twenty-five high school students ventured to Mexico today to visit 55 colleges and universities. A huge thank you to Mrs. Utterback and Mrs. Jones for organizing the trip and to Brandon Barnett for sending Tom Spradling to get us there and back! Great things are happening for our kids!
My first stop for today was to Mr. Hamilton's 8th grade class who were in debate about Christopher Columbus, specifically, was he a hero or a villain?
Students shared their opinions with support and likely learned a few new facts about Mr. Columbus!
My final stop today was to the weight room to see the progress this class has made in the first 5 weeks of school. The high energy in this space is crazy! When kids are cheering other kids on, good things are bound to happen!
My next stop took me to junior high art where students worked with pottery. From rolling clay to making small pots, the students seemed to enjoy the relaxing activity!
Eighth grade students shared their Poetry Odes today to their classmates. The friends on each side are their support buddies, friends who are there when they get nervous or just need a confidence boost. Students really seemed to enjoy the project! Be sure to ask your student about their ode!
Our yearbook team was hard at work last week learning about our new software and getting to know other chapters! They presented our yearbook theme for the year and our ideas for our spreads. They competed against others to win a new camera lens and we found out we are finalist for the lens last night! Fingers crossed!
Good evening! There are NO classes for Vo-Tech tomorrow due to a professional development day for Mexico 59. All Vo-Tech students are aware, just wanted to send a reminder and be sure parents knew as well! Thanks and see everyone on Tuesday!
