Happy Mothers' Day to all the Churchill Moms. I hope your student stopped by the STEM building and picked up a couple items for you at the plant sale. If not maybe they can bring you to SpongeBob the Musical. Tonight is opening night but it runs all weekend and next so make plans to attend. It looked spectacular, just in the preview we got this week during Advisory.
Musicals are always exciting because they usually have a large cast, there are all the students in orchestra participating and then all of the sound and set folks behind the scenes making it happen. Lots of talented, talented students on display, so much fun!
Teacher Appreciation Week was a success. Thank you to those of you that brought something. I would like to send out a special thank you to Jennifer Hartley who set everything up, managed the buffet and then cleaned up. She was an absolute rock star!
Congrats to our Rachel Carson program. Thirty-six students participated in the Oregon Envirothon and the Oregon Garden, taking home 2nd place out of 86 teams!
Go, Lancers!
