During a recent government meeting, Connor Scholes, representing the Associated Student Body (ASB), shared updates on various school activities aimed at fostering community engagement and school spirit. Over the past two weeks, ASB has successfully encouraged student attendance at school football games, highlighted by a \"blue out\" theme that saw significant participation.
Looking ahead, Scholes announced plans for homecoming festivities, including hall decorating themed around the four seasons—summer, spring, fall, and winter. Additionally, ASB is organizing a \"trunk or treat\" event to celebrate Halloween, designed to involve the community and promote school clubs.
Scholes also mentioned the ASB equity committee's ongoing efforts to enhance student participation in events and clubs, as well as initiatives for suicide prevention awareness during the designated month. He emphasized the importance of communication regarding the school's diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging task force, which aims to engage students more effectively.
In a separate report, board member Craig shared his experience speaking to third graders at Jefferson Elementary about their recent trip to the fair. He provided educational insights about livestock, including how to identify the color of eggs laid by chickens based on their ear lobe color. Craig also addressed community concerns regarding recent funding pullbacks, indicating that he has been in discussions with staff, parents, and community members to clarify the situation.
The meeting underscored the school’s commitment to enhancing student involvement and addressing community concerns, while also fostering educational opportunities through engaging activities.
