Happy National Parents As Teachers Day to our parent educator, Roberta Penn. Thanks for all you do for our county's little people! If you or someone you know has a young child that isn't receiving PAT services, reach out and let Mrs. Penn know!

High School Arts and Crafts students just completed their annual Mascot head challenge. Students were told to construct a mascot head that covers their entire head out of cardboard, paper mache, and paint. They had to then complete an obstacle course to prove that they constructed the mask in a sturdy and secure fashion. All of the students succeeded at both goals and did a great job. Arts and Crafts class is taught by Mrs. Toni Lucas.

Mrs. Ellison's American History class is learning about the Whig Party.
The Whig Party was a conservative political party that existed in the United States during the mid-19th century. Alongside the slightly larger Democratic Party, it was one of the two major parties in the United States between the late 1830s and the early 1850s as part of the Second Party System. Four presidents (William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, Zachary Taylor and Millard Fillmore) were affiliated with the Whig Party for at least part of their terms. Other prominent members of the Whig Party include Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, Rufus Choate, William Seward, John J. Crittenden, and John Quincy Adams.
