“When you’re an Addams, you need to have a sense of humor”.
The Addams Family is coming to Badger. November 7-9th our Auditorium will be transformed into a home many of us (dating myself) know and love. Our theater students have been practicing since late summer to dazzle audiences. Please join us for this raucous adventure.
The last month has been full of athletic and academic achievements. Our staff and administration are very proud of our students and their successes. What has been most impressive as I’ve watched our fall athletes is the camaraderie and support that is shown for each other AND those they compete against. The benefits to our students are vast. Teamwork, endurance, competition, diversity and a sense of culture and community are all the positive outcomes of student engagement in extracurricular activities. Students are engaged in a wide variety of non-athletic activities as well. DECA, FFA, and FCCLA, have all been active this fall with students competing and receiving recognition for accomplishments.
Thank you to all our parents/guardians who travel to competitions, warm up food for an after practice meal, drop off snacks when a rehearsal goes long, and support ALL our students as they pursue their interests. Please talk with your student about getting involved in an extracurricular activity at Badger. It is a fun way to meet people who share a common interest and data supports that engagement in activities at school outside the school day have a positive impact on student achievement.
