SCHOOL OPERATIONS CLOSED FOR THANKSGIVING BREAK
SCHOOL OPERATIONS CLOSED FOR THANKSGIVING BREAK
Ayma Malik, Editor in Cheif • November 21, 2023
School will resume on November 27.
To prepare for Friendsgiving, Student Council is creating decorations for the event. They have not had a Friendsgiving for a long time, so they want this one to be different. “It’s Southwest, we need teamwork,” StuCo member Sahib Rattan said. “Having that Friendsgiving makes it just a lot easier, being able to meet the club heads and such.”

During both lunches, BSU historian Rediate Hunde sells tickets to students to watch the upcoming volleyball tournament. The tournament will take place after school in the gym where students can watch the competition and cheer on their friends. “I might be a referee or I might just be a spectator, but for the most part I’m going to be watching and helping around,” Hunde said. “I’m excited to see school spirit and involvement, people actually having fun, people having something to look forward to after school and bringing that sport element to our school.”

To encourage more students to eat breakfast, a rolling cart with bagged meals is available before school hours. On average, more than 27 percent of students ages 12 to 19 skip breakfast. “The CCSD Food department thought that some students might cut breakfast out of their daily diet for many reasons, one being the lack of time,” Food Service Manager Sisco Murillo said. “Having a sack lunch bag ready would help cut some of that time down and provide convenience.”

Placing coffee filters over their contraption, junior Dominic Jackson is using the filter to eliminate the larger particles in the water. Their goal is to win the class competition of who has the cleanest water. “I feel like my group and I did very well at filtering out our water to make it cleaner,” Jackson said. “The only thing is our water was still oily, but I think the coffee filters helped us to get the larger pieces out of our water. Even though my group did not win I think we still did well.”

Janitor Darryl Bryant poses beside his rare 1964 TR4 in 1984. It was the first car he ever owned and considered a classic car at the time, and even more so now. “I’ve always been with cars,” Byrant said. “Back in my day when you were fifteen you had a drivers license. My parents bought me a 1964 TR4, it was broken, it didn’t have an engine, and I rebuilt it myself, that’s how I got into it. I’ve always loved cars, engines, things that go fast, in a straight line, 400 mph in about 2 seconds.”
