Today we had the privilege of having two outstanding speakers talk to our student body. Special thanks to Frank Baker, author of We Survived the Holocaust, and Karl Goldberg, child of Holocaust survivors Felix and Bluma Goldberg, for tell us about this remarkable story.

Check out what we are reading. Students in English 1 CP are reading about Felix and Bluma Goldberg, Holocaust survivors who made South Carolina their home. Students can choose from the graphic novel We Survived the Holocaust or the narrative Risk, Resilience, and Redemption. We are so appreciative of author Frank Baker and the South Carolina Council on the Holocaust for helping provide copies of the books! We are excited to hear from the author and one of the Goldberg's children this Friday.
Last week we had the privilege of having ThinkFast on our campus. ThinkFast Interactive is an evidence-based, game-show style program designed to teach teen driver safety through interactive trivia, addressing distracted driving, speeding, and seatbelt use.

We appreciate her so much!
On Friday, our English 1 students demonstrated their research and presentation skills by presenting to an outside panel of judges. Their "No Text Presentation' consisted of 5-7 pictures and no words except their title slide and sources slide. They had to explain their chosen Holocaust topic from memory. They did a fabulous job of conveying what they knew on their topic! Special shoutout to our volunteer judges, Gloria Smith, Marlene Roth, and Erin Fox.
Students had a hula hoop contest during lunch for an opportunity to win free tickets to our Luau dance this Friday.
