Congratulations to CERT Team 185!
I am so incredibly proud of our CERT Team 185! After a semester of studying, practicing, and preparing, each member of CERT TEAM 185 passed their grueling 8-hour live "mass disaster" training. They are all now qualified to continue taking classes at the Fire Training Academy—more information will be included in next week's WYNK. Team 186 will take part in the Stop the Bleed course here at school this January. Please be sure to congratulate them! Team 186 wishes this semester's CERT recruits the best of luck.
Love,
Ms. Warden

Amazing Days needs your help!
We are looking for volunteers to offer to teach Amazing Days through Spring Break! Do you have a passion for knitting? Maybe you're an expert at changing a tire. No class is too small, as long as it will fit into a neat 1 hour timeslot during our 7th period (2:20 - 3:15 PM). Sign up with your name, the main topic you would like to teach, and select two dates from the list on the sign up page (please note we are only able to offer Amazing Days on Mondays and Fridays).
