Reminder for volleyball fans:
Tickets for the state tournament will go on sale Monday for immediate family members of players, coaches, and statisticians only. Immediate family members is defined as parents and siblings. On Tuesday, tickets will go on sale for all other family members and friends. As of yet, we do not have the cost per ticket. If you will be purchasing tickets on Monday for immediate family members, please contact the office that morning and please purchase and collect your tickets that day. Our goal is to make sure immediate family members are accommodated first to make up for sports being canceled last spring.
Good luck Honkers!

In Advanced English 11, we read Homer's Odyssey. The students were tasked with creating a game that could teach the other English 11 class about the book (English 11 read the Iliad). With a partner, they devised a game that accurately incorporated at least 10 plot events and aspects of the Tragic Hero pattern. They did phenomenal work! We played the games in class so they could see how other students completed the task, and we'll play them in English 11 later this week.
