Mary Kate Bush,

These outstanding students will be inducted by the

Beaver County Technology Center into the

They join fellow classmate, Zach Collins,

already a member, in representing CV in this honor.

Yesterday's Skype visit with Maggie Stiefvater was FAB-U-LOUS!

Empty chairs wait in anticipation...

Then, voila! As if by magic, Maggie Stiefvater appears in our library- live via Skype.  She is witty, endearing, and completely entertaining. She even gave us a scoop! We all knew that her Shiver book is being made into a movie, but we didn't know The Scorpio Races will soon be a movie too.  (If you haven't read it yet, you should. Stop in, we have two copies.)

 

A library filled is a beautiful sight!  Fifty-two students, each having read Maggie's books, signed up for this event. Even Mr. Mendicino and Mr. McCreary joined in the fun.       

This awesome event was made possible by a grant from the Central Valley Education Foundation.  The CVEF's continued support to our high school library is greatly appreciated.

We'd also like to thank Mrs. Amy Patterson in the Middle School for all her help in making the connection for us.

Yep, Matt is one lucky guy!

A good time was had by all.  We can't wait to do it again!

TOMORROW, TOMORROW, MAGGIE'S VISIT IS TOMORROW!

March 29th.
In the library.

NHS Raises Money For American Cancer Society

During the month of March, our NHS members sold $1800 worth of daffodils, wallflowers, yellow bracelets and raffle tickets to help fight cancer. 

Yellow is the color of Spring.  It's also the color of hope. 

Congratulations NHS members for taking the time to do something so worthwhile.  You really shine!
