THIS DAY IN HISTORY
On this day in 1839, the initials "O.K." are first
published in The Boston Morning Post. Meant
as an abbreviation for "oll correct," a
popular slang misspelling of "all correct" at the time, OK steadily
made its way into the everyday speech of Americans.

Peer Tutoring and
Homework Club- Peer Tutoring and Homework Club are well
under way with a full library after school. If you need a tutor please pick up
and fill out the purple tutor request form found on the front table in
counseling. I will only be pairing student through this reporting period. While
students are waiting to be paired they are welcome to come to the homework club
to get tutoring assistance. These programs meet Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
from 3:30 to 4:45 in the library.
Peer Tutors
Wanted- Thank you
to all of the students who have come forward recently to tutor. It is a great
way to earn service hours for the honor society! It is a great way to give back
that requires as little as an hour and fifteen minutes a week. Students who
tutor also review concepts that will be on the college entrance exams. This
program is a win-win for students.
** Currently I am still looking for Geometry tutors, but I also need tutors for Physics, Pre Calc and Honors Advanced Algebra. If you did well or are currently doing well in these subjects.....come see me in counseling. ~Katie Paulsen
Please
don't litter on campus and when walking in the community to and from
