The Cross Country team competed in the Bob Gravette Invitational last Saturday. Jadon Cunningham lead the way with a 13th place finish out of 150 runners. This meet featured the first, third, and fourth ranked teams in the state in our classification. As well as the 2nd ranked team from the class below. He was followed by JD Halstead, Christian Torres, and Eloy Rodriguez. The team placed 6th out of 11 teams.
Addy Taylor lead the girls team placing 51st. Way to go, Running Cats!
Mrs. Marlin's Chemistry students completed a lab where they boiled water and added salt to discover how the boiling point changes. Students had to weigh out salt properly and carefully pour into boiling water. Students used this information to explain inter molecular forces between the water and the salt. Very neat, Mrs. Marlin!
Learning a foreign language doesn’t have to be boring! Check out Ms. Allender’s Spanish I students playing "Simon dice" (Simon says). They used the game to help them practice parts of the body in Spanish. Buen trabajo!
BEST DRESSED ICE BATH AWARD goes to these guys: Ruben Berrequin, Alvin Gonzales, and Christian Rivas!
After a tough cross country practice, they needed an ice bath treatment. How else do you handle intense cold?! Make it fun!
Great work, Running Cats! And good luck tomorrow!

Students in Ms. Lindquist's Biology classes studied the properties of water last week. They completed a lab were they studied water properties at different stations- cohesion, high heat of vaporization, density, universal solvent, and capillary action. Cool lab, Science Cats!

Ms. Cathy Thompson, Product Manager with First Orion Corp in Little Rock, AR spoke to Survey of Business students recently. Ms. Thompson gave an overview of her job with First Orion Corp and discussed the many types of scams and the ease of identity theft in the technology world today. What an interesting speaker, Ms. Owens!
PreAP Bio students from Mrs. Rankin's class explored pH last week. All these Science Cats are staying busy with super engaging labs and hands-on learning! Way to go, Mrs. Rankin!
Check out Algebra I students as they participated in a Scavenger Hunt Review for their unit test over Number Classification, Properties of Numbers, Translations, and Equations! What a fun and engaging way to review, Ms. Adams!
PreAP Bio is at it again! This time, they are preparing a serial dilution of an acid and measuring the pH. These scholars can't get enough of Mrs. Parker's fun and engaging science labs!
While we are waiting on the final results from the EHS Cross Country meet this morning, we wanted to share a special moment that happened during the meet.
One of the 7th grade athletes, Zachary McMillon, went down with a knee injury at the beginning of the junior boys race. Senior JD Halstead saw what was going on and went to check on McMillon. When Halstead realized McMillon could not put any weight on his knee, Halstead took it upon himself to carry McMillion to the EHS tent for treatment.
And that, Wildcat Nation, is the true spirit of being a Wildcat. Thank you, JD and Zachary, for reminding us what being a student athlete is all about: leadership, sportsmanship, and friendship!

Mrs. Moon's seniors had their initial meeting with the College and Career Coaches to backwards plan their future. April Malone, one of the EHS College and Career Coaches, created a central webpage for all of their senior year planning. They will meet several times throughout the year to allow students to monitor their progress toward success. What a wonderful experience for our seniors!
WILDCAT FAN OF THE WEEK
This week, we are honoring Tony Hooks! Just two and a half weeks after undergoing triple bypass surgery, Mr. Hooks made it to the top of the stadium to his regular seat near the press box to watch his son Cameron in the opening Wildcat game of the season last week. Mr. Hooks stayed the entire game.
Mr. Hooks attends football games every week unless he's working, then he listens on the radio. He loves his family and the Wildcats, but his dedication to supporting his son shines the most!
We are proud to call you a Wildcat fan, Mr. Hooks! Thanks for supporting the Wildcats!
