It is Computer Science Education Week, and the new PHS Coding Club is sponsoring the return of the annual Hour of Code Event!!! Have you ever wondered what all the talk of coding is about? Ever want to just try a little and see if it is actually as fun as they say it is? Come to Room 209 right after school on Friday, December 9. Bring your computer or use ours. Jump into game-based coding. Make your own Flappy Bird Game app for your phone, or program a Dance Party! Refreshments will be served!

SMS Student Council is hosting their 2nd annual free gift-wrapping drive on Dec. 19 from 4-5:30pm in the Stafford Middle School Cafeteria. Bring up to 10 Holiday items to be wrapped for free. Refreshments and holiday music will be offered in the cafeteria while you wait for your gifts to be wrapped.

A reminder that today CVTECH has an Early Release today.  There are no Classes in the afternoon. Therefore, morning CVTECH students are not impacted but all afternoon CVTECH students will have to go home instead of going to afternoon CVTECH.

Reminder, if you are interested to travel to Italy and Greece this spring. The deadline to enroll is Sunday December 18,2022. If you have any questions, please see Mrs. Yadollahpour in room 215.

The Key Club is sponsoring a Winter Clothing Drive November 28 – December 9

Share the holiday cheer and donate new or gently used hats, scarves, gloves, and socks. Drop off items in box next to the Christmas tree in the cafeteria.

“The Green Team’s free clothing thrift store is now open! Stop by the auditorium from 5th period until after school to add to your wardrobe for free! We are still accepting new items through today.”

Are you interested in Law, Juvenile Justice, or just want to help make a difference by giving back to your own community? Join the Clinton County Youth Court!

Youth Court is a county run program that provides a unique opportunity to serve as members of a court for youth who have committed real offenses. All roles in the court room (Judge, Attorney, Clerk Bailiff, and Jury) are fulfilled by the members. Members earn community service credit hours for all their time participating with the Youth Court.

The Clinton County Youth Court will be holding a 2-day new member training on Wednesday December 28th and Thursday December 29th. For more information, please visit the guidance office or keep your eye out for flyers and scan the QR code to fill out an application online!

The PHS character trait for December is Acceptance.

Acceptance is important because it is the gateway to feeling a sense of belonging. To be accepting of others, you must create a space for everyone around you to be the best version of themselves possible. This will instill a culture of belonging and strengthen our communities.
