Students from Mrs. Schrader and Mr. Helwig's Business Math classes attended a "Business Day" field trip at Penn State Behrend. The college put on the day with zero costs to districts and provided the students lunch which included Penn State's famous ice cream from the Berkey Creamery. The students attended talks of their choice on accounting, business, international business, finance, economics, management information systems, marketing, sports management, artificial intelligence and entrepreneurship.

High School History Club members have decided they want to do even more community service this year! To begin the year off they have chosen the
Blue Star Mother's organization and will be involved in collecting items at the MHS and SES for our military. Watch our FB page for items needed! This month’s activity was the creation of holiday cards to send to the military with words of thanks and support. Some cards were made for local veterans as well. Social Studies Department Chair and advisor, Mrs. Richir, gave each student a coupon for a free Frosty for a Halloween treat and to show her appreciation too! These are a great bunch of students and what a wonderful way to show Cougar Pride!

The high school Science Club invited our newly hired Earth Science teacher, Mr. Mikula, to be a guest speaker for our October meeting. He did a presentation on geology and shared his enormous wealth of knowledge in this discipline. The club members enjoyed looking at the various rocks he brought in and using the sieve to sort sediments according to size. We learned about the origin of rocks and what they are used for in everyday life.
