Congratulations to members of the National French Honor Society on competing at The Shippensburg Lan-guage Competition on Saturday 11/14. These dedicated French stu-dents (From left to right) Deja Lee, Hunter Roof, Emily Schweitzer, Kiara Cornish, Shayna Dozier, and Jade Willis competed in French Jeopardy and Karaoke. Emily Schweitzer won second place in Jeop-ardy!

We had a special guest at Conewago in Mrs. Davis' 1st grade class. Lone Eagle (Paisley Crow's grandfather) taught us about Native Americans and Thanksgiving. We learned how they hunted, harvested food, made clothes and about their instruments. The presentation ended with us making our own headbands, complete with a feather.

Mrs. Steager's class had chefs from YTI come in. The students had the opportunity to help Chef David and Chef Joe create designs in watermelons, radishes, carrots etc.

Northeastern girls' soccer coach Dianna Collier came out to support the back-back U-10 NEYSA girls division champs on a windy Saturday.

On Friday, students at SFI were entertained by our annual visit by the Frogtown Mountain Puppeteers from Maine. This trio of puppeteers delighted the students and staff with their "Everybody Loves Pirates" show. They also highlighted how their career choice allows them to use all they learned in school to create their fan-ciful shows; from using their research and writing skills to create their scripts, to using math to make their sets and manage their books, to using their fine arts learning to pull it all together, it truly takes a well rounded education to be a successful puppeteer!

Rhiannon Lubaszewski, 4th grader at Shallow Brook Intermediate, recently competed in the In-ternational Junior Miss Program held in Monroe, New Jersey! She was awarded 1st place for talent and won a chase scholarship! She also went on to win an outstanding pageant title, which now makes her the 2016 International Junior Miss Keystone State Preteen! She will be receiving a crown, banner, and an additional $300 scholar-ship. With this title she will be making appear-ances and then she will go onto the International Competition in Virginia Beach in July.

Congratulations Rhiannon!
