Friday's High School Staff Spotlight
4 students were nominated by staff to attend the Youth Advisory Council Meeting today hosted by Sen. Win Stoller at Sauk Valley Community College. Over 60 additional area high school students attended today's event where they heard presentations from a former prison warden, a local businessman, and a judge. The students also worked together with other schools to design a bill. One group's bill presentation was voted on by the whole group as the bill that will be deconstructed at the next YAC Meeting next spring in Springfield. Pictured: Madison Wetzell, Lesleigh Maynard, Sen. Stoller, Justin Moon, Atticus Middleton, and Mrs. Clark.
Honors Communication students crushed their informative speeches! Students researched, organized, prepared and presented a 7-8 minute informative speech on the topic of their choice. Well done!
