NEWS INTRO

As we close out National FFA week, check the halls to see who wore their boots and flannels today and enjoy some boot scoot to the country music between classes.
 
Agriculture is our nation’s number one industry, so even if you never end up in the stereotypical ag careers like farmer, welder, or landscaper, you may still be involved in the agriculture field as a marketer, sale representative, scientist, mechanic, financial advisor, engineer, or technician.
 
Now to leave you with some food for thought: Today’s American farmer feeds 155 people worldwide. In 1960, they each only fed 25.8 people.
 
Thank you all for participating in our National FFA Week celebration!
 
Come on out on Saturday, March 4th to our GLOW THE NIGHT neon Mini-THON to raise funds for Four Diamonds.  We will have a variety of games and food, Kona Ice, a mechanical bull, a dance party, and lots of fun!  If you didn’t get a registration form last week, please see Mrs. Socie or Mrs. Hopkin.  The due date for registration forms is Monday, so please get them in AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!
 
Mini Thon is right around the corner! Are you ready to show off you neon colors and support the kids? The best way to do that is to participate in Spirit week. Starting Monday the 27th we will be kicking the week off with Penn State Day! Followed by Penn State day we also have neon wars, PJ day, Black out with glowsticks, and rock your mini thon shirt day. On Wednesday and Thursday during lunch we will be selling glow sticks for $1 to rock with your black out outfits. Your second period teacher will give you a ticket if you participate, which will be entered into a raffle! Don't forget this is all for the kids!

Signup to take the ASVAB today!  If you are in 10th, 11th, or 12th grade and need some help making career decisions, then consider taking the ASVAB.  The ASVAB is designed to help you learn more about yourself and the world of work, explore occupational skills in line with your interests and skills, and develop a strategy to realize your career goals.  This free assessment is offered at EHS on Wednesday, March 15th and there is absolutely no military commitment by taking the test.  For the juniors who need to complete the ACT 158 Keystone graduation requirement, this is great way to fulfil that– all you need to do is score a 31 on this test.  You can find the sign up link in Schoology as well as on the Counseling webpage.

Tonight, at 7:00 p.m. there is a FREE, yes FREE concert open to the public.  Musicians from Ecuador, Andes Manta, will be performing in the high school auditorium.  They play traditional, folkloric music of the Andes Mountains, and will have a dance group with them too, performing traditional dances.  These musicians travel around the country, and even make a lot of their own instruments by hand.  Bring your family, bring a friend!  Come and immerse yourself in another culture.  Friday, February 24 at 7:00 p.m.
