πΎ Thank You from Bobcat Tennis! πΎ
At last nightβs Board of Education meeting, our varsity tennis team shared their gratitude with the board, Superintendent Matt Schmidt, and Assistant Superintendent Kurt Pake for their hard work in making the new John Glenn High School tennis courts a reality.
Over the years, both our middle school and high school tennis programs have grown tremendously. With the new courts completed this summer, our Bobcats now have a facility theyβre proud to showcase as they welcome visiting teams this fall season.
As a special thank-you, players presented board members with signed tennis balls used during the very first match on the new courts.ππΎ

ποΈ Innovation in Actionπ‘
One of our most exciting new additions this year is our SmartLab space and our students are jumping right in! Today students took on a hands-on challenge: building the tallest free-standing tower using only scissors, five inches of duct tape, and eight flex straws! The results? Amazing collaboration, creative ideas, and thoughtful discussions about what makes structures strong and secure. π
Weβre so excited to see the incredible learning and problem-solving happening in the SmartLab - and we canβt wait to celebrate this space later this fall with our community. Stay tuned for details! π
