Congratulations to our Robotics Team!  They will continue their great season this weekend at the State Championships at East Carolina University this weekend!

The Marine Science Club is celebrating Aquatic Animal Day (April 3rd) early on Thursday, March 30th. We will have a celebration Thursday B lunch in room 3632, spreading awareness about the day and all of the amazing aquatic animals we have in the world. We also are inviting anyone who wants to participate to wear something of their favorite aquatic animal, shirt, shoes, etc. 

 

Looking for ways to become involved in planning events for teenagers and in community service opportunities in Holly Springs?

Community Table- For the next couple of months our community table is set up to make thank you cards/letters.  We will be making cards and writing letters to US veterans participating in what is known as an “Honor Flight”.  On May 3rd, a group of NC veterans from past wars will be traveling to Washington DC, for their last "mission"... visiting our country's Capitol and the memorials raised in their honor.  

Before these men and women board their flight, they will have a "Mail Call" as they did all those years ago when they were serving our country away from their families. Our students are welcome to take a moment to make a card or write a letter of appreciation made out to "Dear Veteran," and sign in "From a student". These will be added to the mail bag to bring a smile to their faces.

Media Center News:

March Library Challenge- Design a bookmark using one of the blank ones at the entrance to the library.  Each student can submit 2 bookmarks to be voted on, and the winning bookmark will have copies made for other students to use and keep.  The winner will also get a gift basket of goodies and a gift card.  Two other bookmarks will also be randomly selected for prizes.

 

Community Table- For the next couple of months our community table is set up to make thank you cards/letters.  We will be making cards and writing letters to US veterans participating in what is known as an “Honor Flight”.  On May 3rd, a group of NC veterans from past wars will be traveling to Washington DC, for their last "mission"... visiting our country's Capitol and the memorials raised in their honor.  

Before these men and women board their flight, they will have a "Mail Call" as they did all those years ago when they were serving our country away from their families. Our students are welcome to take a moment to make a card or write a letter of appreciation made out to "Dear Veteran," and sign in "From a student". These will be added to the mail bag to bring a smile to their faces.
