ANNOUNCEMENTS/TODAY'S EVENTS
Thursday is the bridge between the hard work of the week and the sweet reward of the weekend, Eagle Nation! The temperature is pushing into the 50's and 60's along with a dry stretch of weather. We had action on the diamond last night, so make sure you check out the scores and highlights.
The school year will be over before we know it, so make sure you stay on top of everything.
Spring Sports will be over in the blink of an eye, so get out to catch some games and meets before it's too late.
As we get into the final stretch of the school year, remember there are many events, so keep tuned in, as there are a lot of moving parts.

Cows kick unexpectedly and, unlike the kind of kicks horses do, kicking back, cows kick to the side, too, and the front. It can be a light kick in your general direction if the cow is feeling inconvenienced. Make sure to stay where the cow can see you to avoid a harder kick.

Fun fact of the day: When you're reading, even silently, the muscles of your mouth, tongue, and larynx activate. This process is called 'subvocalisation'. We're essentially still sounding out the words in our heads to decode them, even when we're not speaking them out loud.
Did you know? Pele is the only soccer player to ever be a part of three different World Cup-winning teams.

- In 2021, shortly after launch, astronauts in a SpaceX capsule headed to the International Space Station were told to put on their spacesuits as a precaution against a possible collision with space debris. (U.S. Space Command, which was responsible for the warning, later claimed it was an error and that the astronauts were never at risk.)
-

-
In 1986, the Coca-Cola Company introduced New Coke, a reformulated soft drink meant to replace its flagship beverage and boost sales at the expense of its rival Pepsi. Public outrage ensued, however, and even the company's own bottlers rebelled. Just 79 days later, old Coke, now called Coca-Cola Classic, went back on sale. New Coke was discontinued in 2002.
- In 1635, the Boston Grammar School (later the Boston Latin School), which opened to all boys regardless of social class, was founded as the first public school in what would become the United States; it set a precedent for tax-supported public education.
