Juniors participated in a Career and College fair today in Centralia. Students met with industry professionals and colleges that represented the career field they want to pursue. They gained valuable insight to prepare them for their job shadow project.

Congrats to Gavin Turk on becoming the single season leader in rushing yards, rushing attempts, and touchdowns. Here is Gavin pictured with the previous holder of these records, Shane Ohlde. Gavin also wraps up his career 2nd on many of the rushing categories. Gavin played 21 High School football games for the Bulldogs. Also a big shout out to fellow Senior Will Olson for paving the way for every carry, yard, and touchdown of Gavin's career. You two will greatly be missed!

Day 2 of National FFA Convention took us to the expo, first general session, chapter meal at Buca di Beppo, and a group reflection. Members got to meet companies in the agriculture industry. We listened to Juan Bendaña as the keynote on bringing energy, courage, and confidence as leaders in our chapter, school, and community. We took time for a chapter meal and rounded it out with a group reflection on the keynote speaker before winding down for the night.
We want to invite our JH/HS Football parents and families to our recognition banquet on November 7th at 7:00 pm in the New Gym Commons Area. There will NOT be food provided, as this is just an opportunity to talk in depth about our student athletes success, growth, and the future of the program moving forward.
We have made it to Indianapolis for National FFA Convention. We spent today traveling and stopped to see the Gateway Arch in St. Louis.

GAMEDAY NOTIFICATION
The first and sixth graders have been paired up for a Bigs and Littles program. Once a month our Bigs and Littles will meet to read books or do a fun activity. Today was our first session. The first graders were so excited to read to their Bigs today. They are already asking when we can meet again!
Today during our plant unit we learned about seed germination. The students made seed germination necklaces in which we put 2 wheat kernels, one soybean seed, and three water orbies in a small bag. We attached this to a yarn and made necklaces. Students will keep these necklaces under their shirts for the next week in order to keep them nice and warm. Through this process, we should observe the seeds germinate. We also put leftover seeds in a warm paper towel and will put it in a window. We learned this is another way we can observe seed germination.
