CIS Public Speaking students ended the semester with an awards celebration and senior-made French toast breakfast, commemorating their hard work this year! Students received awards in various categories, including best overall speaker, best eye contact, most improved, and most poetic.
Congrats to all of the senior public speakers for their growth this year and making the class fun!
These students took a walk to the new candy store in Ironton, High Wheel Confectionery! Each student got to pick out their own treat and check out the new store. A great way to end the school year!
Ninth graders in Mrs. Thoennes' English class worked hard on presenting their endangered species speeches last week. The class then voted on the following categories: Best Overall Speech, Best Delivery Skills, Best Information, Best Induction, Best Conclusion: The students who were voted as best overall speech will be given an adoption kit; the English department will donate to that species. They will also have their speech put on social media with a link for others to donate!
Congratulations to the Class of 2023!

RED SAND PROJECT
The #redsandproject was created to bring awareness to the public on the topic of human trafficking. It is estimated that 40.3 million people are in slavery worldwide.
This red sand represents those who have been victims of human trafficking and other forms of slavery and have fallen through the cracks. Students in Global Studies and Environmental Biology filled the cracks, at the high school, with red sand to bring awareness to the issue and become part of the movement.
To learn more go to redsandproject.org.
