Mrs. Quirk's English II students have been preparing for weeks for Debate Day! They were split into two groups and had to argue either for or against their chosen subject. Students spent much of their class time (and some free time) researching possible points they could use to strengthen their argument.
Don't forget about Winterfest! Thursday, December 15, in the gym from 5:00 - 7:00 PM. Games, HOUND, ugly sweater contest, & special appearances by Santa & the Grinch! See you there!
