Last Friday, we celebrated "Decision Day" with our seniors. Students wrote out their plans for after graduation & posted it on the wall in the cafeteria, had an ice cream treat, & received prizes. We had a drawing in which each senior received something that might be helpful or enjoyable in the future - from candy bars & decks of cards to hammocks & college logo shirts to a mini-fridge & microwave. A big thank you to Forest Area Credit Union, Antioch Hills Golf Club, Crystal Mountain, and the individual staff and community members who donated for the giveaway. We appreciate your generosity! We will be posting pictures of the students, a few each day, between now & graduation to continue the celebration. We are very proud of our soon-to-be graduates. Congratulations to the Class of 2021!
High School 3D Sculpture students are creating "Larger than Life" sculptures. Students learned about sculpture artist Claes Oldeburg and his enlarge sculptures of everyday objects. Students are required to choose an everyday object that they can enlarge 5x's (or more) its original size. Some ideas that students chose: Hairbrush, Nike Shoe, Face Mask, iPhone plug, Car Rim, Fishing lure, Starbucks Frappe, and more. Pictures of finished sculptures to come!
