Mr. Goza asked me to stop by and say hi to the Leo Club so I took a few pics. Great turnout!

Thank you to everyone who allowed us to use your classrooms/conference room so DP 2 Spanish students could record presentations about long term solutions for environmental problems in Spanish-speaking countries.

Some more great pics of Leos at Ironman on Sunday, once the sun came out and it quit raining. They did a spectacular job!

Leos working hard at the Ironman yesterday. We had over 100 Leos come through over the course of a 13-hour day!

@amoslee from Chatt: We were listening. Honored at your vulnerability. Have lost family, friends & students. I feel your pain and weep w/you. May your music continue to give solace for your emotions, but there are people out there for you when it’s no longer enough. Be strong

There’s nothing like having a 2 hour lunch with friends, who happen to be SMMHS alumni, to remind me that I teach not for test results or what schools my students attend, but rather seeing the mature, open-minded thinkers they grow up to be. Rebecca Vandeventer & Natalie Taggart

Kudos to the SMHS Leo Club. They did us proud volunteering at the Ironman today. Altogether we covered over 40 shifts. They did their jobs plus were willing to be flexible and move to wherever they were needed. Here are just some of them.

May the fourth be with you from DP testing!

[dstricklin @srastricklin]

After 4 days of blanket making we are officially done! Thanks to all the Leos who helped and the teachers who let them.

Awesome time at East Ridge HS with the Leos and former SMMHS teacher Belinda Martin, making Thanksgiving boxes for local families. A special thanks to Melissa Bouldin for coming and helping.

SMMHS Leos rocked it today at the Ironman! Some of them worked over 6 hours! The Ironman staff were raving about them. They represented you well. Including the new Leo president and VP.
