Please remember that SGA's book drive is this week and next week.
We're collecting books of all types to be donated for use by children as well
as adults. Help our local communities by donating your gently used books. Bring
your books to the Media Center and leave them in front of the fireplace. (If
the Media Center is closed, please drop the books off in the office, and SGA
will collect them later.) Thank you for supporting literacy in our community!

· The Brian M.
Conley Young Writers' Institute is a free day of creative writing classes for
high school students and their teachers. Held on the campus of the University
of Tennessee, Knoxville and administered by Margaret Lazarus Dean of UT’s
English Department, the Institute offers classes in creative writing, this year
in fiction and poetry. All classes are taught by experts in their field. Lunch
is provided.
The day begins
on Saturday, April 9, at the
University of Tennessee campus in HSS 71 at 10:15 a.m., when registration
opens. Students will take one class in the morning and another in the
afternoon. After the second class, everyone returns to room HSS 71 for an
open-mic reading, where the students can read from the work they wrote that
day, if they’d like to. Our Open Mic usually runs until 3 p.m., at which point
the day ends. Students will learn new writing skills, gain confidence in
expressing their ideas, and get a taste for academic life at the University of
Tennessee.
If you are interested in attending,
please respond directly to Mr. Bell by Wednesday, April 6th so that I may
confirm your registration. Students are responsible for the own transportation
to and from this event.
Quote
of the day from Mahatma Gandhi:
Be the change you want to see in the
world.
Practice L&N Habits every day: Collaboration, Critical
thinking, Design, Innovation, Inquiry, & Professionalism
