HS Lady Trojans on the road tonight at Woodlawn!
Mrs. Birkner visited 5th grade this week and did an experiment to help solidify students' understanding of acids and bases.
January Staff Member of the Month: Mrs. Michelle Marlow! Below are nominations from her colleagues: “Mrs. Marlow goes above and beyond for her students. She comes in early and is willing to help any student that needs it. She is always willing to help out with anything that benefits the students. No matter how the day goes, she is always positive.” “Mrs. Marlow is here by 7 am every morning to be available to her students for extra help and also will stay after school if needed to help them. She goes way above and beyond to help her students understand the concepts in each lesson. Mrs. Marlow is the BEST math teacher I have ever known!” “Mrs. Marlow is an excellent math teacher, she knows her content and goes above and beyond to help kids learn the material!” “Mrs. Marlow is the greatest math teacher I have ever had the pleasure of watching teach! She can provide her students with the best of both worlds, the "show me" students AND the "tell me why" students. Mrs. Marlow has always gone well above and beyond to help her students succeed. She makes herself available to help students one on one before school, during her planning period and will even stay after school if needed.” Congratulations Mrs. Marlow!

Ladies Trojans Win at Steeleville
Your Lady Trojans traveled to Steeleville last night and got the Win over the Lady Warriors 65-42. JV lost 16-14. Both squads played really well! The Varsity Lady Trojans move to 11-8 on the season.
On the Varsity side, it was 27-23 at half time as the Lady Trojans got back in rhythm for their first game in over a week. After half, the Lady Trojans outscored Steeleville 21-9 in the 3rd and 17-10 in the 4th to pull ahead and secure the win. Edyn Knight led the way with 31 pts, with Chloe King following her with 17 points. Maia Schultz rounded out the top 3 scorers with 7 points. Laney Hails, Kadi Bain, Payton Knight, and Lydia Hulbert provided stiff defense and hustle that helped push the ball up the floor and provide great scoring opportunities for their teammates. It was a true team effort with the lady trojans winning the battle for turnovers, steals and rebounds throughout the night. Great job ladies.
