🍄✨ PTO Mario Penny Wars = GAME ON! ✨🍄 Today our school turned into a real-life Mario Kart track as we wrapped up our PTO Mario Penny Wars fundraiser! 🏁💰 This fun (and competitive!) coin drive helps raise money for teacher requests, field trips, and awesome student activities. Our students showed UP and raised over $7600.00 🙌 🏆 Shoutout to the Freshman Class for taking the win and earning the grand prize: a trip to the movies! 🎬👏 To celebrate, students and staff brought the energy and got to “race” their way to the finish today, making it the perfect ending to one of our PTO’s biggest and most exciting events of the year! Thank you to everyone who donated, participated, and made this event such a success. 💚 🍄 Thank you to Shaw Farms Market for supplying the carts for the race. Let’s just say… the competition was fierce, the fun was real, and the spirit was unmatched!

💚✨ Sources of Strength in Action! ✨💚 Today was all about mental health, connection, and building strength together! Students traveled through our Sources of Strength Station Rotations, using their passports to explore different ways to support their mental wellness and each other. From start to finish, they were engaged, reflective, and all-in on making a positive impact! 🙌 👏 Huge shoutout to our HS Sources of Strength Team for leading the way and creating such a meaningful experience for everyone! 💚 Sponsored by: World Teen Mental Wellness Grant & the HS Sources of Strength Team

Bethel-Tate has reported their softball field unplayable for tonight; therefore, tonight's game cancelled (no makeup date to report). Girls 🥎 next game, Tuesday at Ripley 5 PM.

Saturday's scheduled baseball games with MVCA are postponed; rescheduled for a Varsity game only on Monday, March 30, 5:00 PM on our home field.

🚀 Bringing STEM Opportunities Directly to Our Students! Our high school was proud to participate in TECHMobile Ohio, an incredible initiative designed to connect students with hands-on STEM experiences and real-world career pathways. We believe every student has the potential to succeed in STEM, and programs like this help break down geographic barriers by providing access to resources, technology, and industry experts. This experience sparked curiosity, inspired innovation, and opened doors to future careers our students may have never imagined before. The future of STEM starts here! 💡
