Hey Junior High & High School Students!
We’ve got something fun planned for you next Thursday, Oct. 23rd—right after school at the elementary school! 🎉

Come hang out and:
✨ Be a mentor to an elementary student
🎬 Watch a movie together

🍪 Grab a snack

If you’re in sports, your coaches already know about this activity - please talk to them about attending. (E-Sports does have a couple matches that they will do first).

This is an awesome way to give back, be a role model, and have a good time with our younger Trojans! 💙

Questions: contact Ms. Waring, Mrs. Pointon or Mr. Japhet

See you next Thursday! 🙌

Braydon also had four 2 point conversions. On the defensive side Ortiz helped stop the run game with 3 total tackles with 2 tackles for loss.

Hector of the Week
JH- Isabella Nevland-Isabella has really grown as a student this year by taking an advanced math class and by excelling in
all of her classes. She has a fun, positive personality. She gets along great with everyone. Isabella works very hard as a
student and as an athlete. She represents our school well whenever she can. We are all proud of Isabella and what she is
accomplishing in Junior High!"
HS -Kree Wallace- He's busy with all of his high school activities, plus college classes, and he still manages to be
pleasant and polite when we see him (which isn't very often, ha!). We appreciate Kree!
Staff - HECTOR of the WEEK: Mrs. Ann Marfil has been an absolute trooper throughout the transition from Goedustar
to Alma, navigating each challenge with patience and determination. Her persistence and problem-solving during this
ongoing process have helped keep things running smoothly for everyone.
