Submitted by david.thacker on

If you’d been walking through the halls of SFJH today, you would have heard a grooving beat coming from math teacher Brooke Cline’s room.  And when you stepped inside the door—30 totally engaged students showing off their fancy footwork as well as their comprehension of angles.  Here’s what Ms. Cline told us:

7th Graders Consider Careers

Submitted by david.thacker on

Counselors met with all the seventh graders today on Thursday to go over their registration for next year. As an added bonus, students received a quick presentation about College and Career Readiness. 

Counselors discussed the benefits of researching careers that they may be interested in and finding out how much education that career would need.  Seventh graders learned about several different options for post high school education. 

It's never too early to talk to your child about their interests or how to turn those interests into a career for life.

Let’s Review—A Great Year So Far!

Submitted by david.thacker on

First semester goes out with a BANG with so much memorable and fun stuff to look back on.

 Starting at the beginning of the year, we had our Shakespeare team competitions, and they did GREAT! Not long after that, we had Fall Break, which I think everyone can agree was awesome!

 Following Fall Break, we had Red Ribbon Week, and we all teamed up against drugs and had a fun-filled week with activities and assemblies. Not long after we had our Fall Carnival/Dance, which was awesome! We had a ton of people show up and a great night filled with dancing and laughter.
