Congratulations to Maria for her selection to the Governor's Honors Program this summer!

Mousepad Mania

Thanks again to Mrs. Brethour for the mousepad kits!  We all had a great time manipulating digital photos and printing pictures to apply to our mousepads.  We also finished up the rest of our Photography IPP except for the service project.  We decided that we will photograph the 3 Leaves Service Unit Bridging Ceremony.  Since five out of the seven of us will receive recognitions, we need to be there anyway.  Callie has to be at Misty Mountain, but she’ll do another photography service project.  Check out what we’ve done on the attached IPP descriptions.  Those of you working on the Gold Award can print these out for your notebooks.

Things Coming Up (College Adults are welcome anytime, especially to welcome Jesse and Karen at the Bridging Ceremony.)
