06/09 Daily Eagle

Monday is for people with a mission, EAGLE NATION!!!!!! Well, ladies and gentlemen, Spring Sports season has officially come to an end as Qualifiers for State Track and Field and Trap States wrapped up this past weekend.  The end of the school year is breathing down our necks as this is the last full week of school for Grades 7-12.  It has been an exciting and fun year, and we look forward to the future.  

Remember, keep it classy, Eagle Nation

Fun fact of the day:   People used to say "prunes" instead of "cheese" when getting their pictures taken. In the 1840s, a cheesy grin was seen as childish, so a London photographer told people to say "prunes" to keep their mouths tight.
