Imaginations Run Wild: Chalk Drawing Contest Today we celebrated creativity and talent as our Chalk Drawing Contest unfolded. With 59 artists and 5 student helpers, the front parking lot of our Jr/Sr High School turned into a canvas of dreams and fantasies inspired by the theme, "Imagination Unleashed." Thank you to our staff volunteers, as well as to the duo of Mrs. Glenn and Mrs. Litkenhaus, who organized and coordinated an event that allowed for students to have fun and enjoy working on a project together! The day kicked off early at 8 am, with artists armed with buckets of chalk and a pre approved draft of the art they would be creating. As the event came to a close, the parking lot was filled with a tapestry of scenes and unique pieces of art. The diversity of styles and themes showcased the unique perspectives of each team. What's more, every participant earned a Fine Arts graduation seal and the chance for a cash prize for those whose creations captured the eyes of our judges. This year's theme, "Imagination Unleashed," brought out the best in our artists and encouraged them to push themselves to explore different artistic themes. Once again, a big round of applause to all our participants, helpers, and organizers for making this Chalk Drawing Contest a day to remember.

After-School Boxing Club for Students Check out this innovative addition to our extracurricular activities: the Boxing Club. The club is aimed at promoting exercise, camaraderie, self-defense skills, and has proven to be an exciting opportunity for students across our district. Partnering with Real Deal Boxing Club, known for its commitment to training and excellence in the sport, will give students who demonstrate progress and dedication within the school club an opportunity to join Real Deal Boxing Club. As part of the 21st Century grant initiative, which emphasizes holistic development and enrichment for students, the After-School Boxing Club offers an array of benefits. Not only do students have the chance to learn self-defense techniques and improve their fitness levels, but they are also provided with meals. The upcoming highlight for our boxers is a field trip scheduled for May 4th at the Flock Dome. Here, students will get to watch members of Real Deal Boxing Club in action, witnessing firsthand the skill and practice required to excel in the sport. During a recent practice session, we had the opportunity to observe the club in action. Students engaged in a dynamic warm-up routine that included jump roping, followed by instruction on proper hand wrapping techniques by advisor and teacher Joel Bartlett and Mindy Reichelt. Notably, experienced students took on mentorship roles, assisting their peers in learning how to wrap their hands. The practice session was structured with timed intervals so that students could engage in a workout with various exercises and equipment. From free-standing bags to speed bags, heavy bags, angled heavy bags, and double end bags, students had the chance to explore different aspects of boxing training under expert guidance. We are excited about the positive impact the After-School Boxing Club continues to have on our students, not only does it encourage physical fitness and self-defense skills, but it also creates a sense of belonging and teamwork among participants. We are grateful for the partnership with Real Deal Boxing Club and look forward to seeing our students thrive in the sport.
