Basketball - Giving - Learning

Basketball season is off to a bullish start!  Our teams have been working hard to prepare and our opening game showcased their hard efforts.  It was exciting for me to see the students in action. 

It has been fun to watch how the musical is coming together.  Theatre is such an amazing thing, just when you think it might be hopeless, things blossom in spectacular fashion.

Today has been an emotional day for many of our students as they say their goodbyes to our guests from Guatemala.  Both of them hope “with all [their] hearts to come back as permanent students next year.

Frankie, Paula Robinson and Robert -- saying goodbye

*Advisories play Bingo for the Oregon Food Bank on Wednesday, December 15, 2010*

Here is how to play:

Students "purchase" a Bingo card by bringing in at least 3 cans or $3

(More cans or $$ would be a great help to Oregon Food Bank)

Bring your cans in a clearly marked bag or $$ in a clearly marked envelope to the Front Desk or RHS Library.

Thank you from students in the Ziff and Loggan Advisories.
