Athlete of the week goes to Sylvana Adame! This amazing young lady put in hours of extra effort and hard work to get her needed tumbling skills to enhance the varsity coed cheer routine! She performed a connected tumbling series during the blue and white classic and coaches and teammates were blown away with the precision and athleticism this skill took! Way to go, Sylvana!!!
Jr high athlete of the week for cheer is Tanaya Etheridge! Tanaya has decided to try cheer this year and it suits her! She not only fits in with our cheer family she shines bright on the competition mat. Her loud voice, sharp motions, and ability to help lead the squad is outstanding.
Congrats!!

HECTOR of the Week within the community - Mrs. Kelly Ortiz would like to nominate Nicholas Duran and Giovanni Chavez. With a recent
injury in the family, and family out of town, Mrs. Ortiz and her mother-in-law needed some help doing some cleanup
around the yard and putting up some heavy items. She called Nicholas and Gio early Friday morning and without hesitation,
they both got out of bed, went over and helped accomplish the tasks before heading off to Friday School.

11/17 JH/HS Announcements:
From Coach Japhet: here is the link for basketball team gear. This is not a fundraiser so prices were taken down, however I just wanted to share in case you would like to buy basketball apparel. https://bsnteamsports.com/shop/cXgSzd1PEJ
The Junior Class had a great time designing their section of the Big A for the month of October. Every month at LAES and JH/HS the class with the highest percentage rate “wins” the Big A and gets to decorate a section.
🎯 Hope got a bullseye on 11th November and James Linenberger got one last night! . Great Archery groupings from both of them.!
Thank you to all the families who donated a toy for Christmas Angels at BINGO night 🥰.
