SCLA Juniors are busily working on their Senior Capstone Proposals. We will highlight these projects throughout the year for you to see what the seniors are up to.
11th GRADE:
SCLA 11 had a great overnight trip to Denver! A great cultural dinner at Mongolian BBQ, Enjoying the Rockies game, Team building on Segways, and a tour of the State Capitol while visiting with some of our elected officials. The students organized and planned this trip as a final prep for their senior capstone projects.
Senior Center Open House- 11th graders capped off their Senior
Center Mulch-Generational project by helping out at the Senior Center
Open House. We prepared food, served food, danced, mingled and visited
with Elvis. It was a great opportunity to mix and learn from the older
generation, and have them see teenagers through different eyes.
SPANGLER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL UPDATE-
Thanks to everyone who helped make the Spangler Elementary school online auction a success. The Juniors did a great job putting together baskets for bidding and we were able to give Spangler a check for $1244.55. This money will help them tremendously with needed items. Thanks to PAYTON PETERSON for helping with the tech piece of the project.
10th GRADE:
Students have completed their respect projects and have presented to other classes. Two groups have been selected to present their projects to the Public Policy Committee at the Chamber of Commerce meeting in June. The students worked hard to bring issues to light to make SCHS a better school. GREAT JOB!
