"The speech team had a fantastic ending to the regular season at Jefferson HS this past Saturday. We placed fourth overall, and everyone broke finals! We also had a few top three-varsity competitors: Abrar Sherif placed third in Special Occasion Speaking. Connor Maess placed second in both Extemporaneous Speaking and Radio Speaking. Vanessa Williams placed first in Prose Reading and Vivian Bornhoeft placed first in Impromptu Speaking. We are so proud! Wish the team luck as they head to the IHSA Regional tournament this Saturday at Monmouth-Roseville."
CLUBS:

In February, relationships are celebrated worldwide, but did you know the most important relationship you will ever have is with yourself? Think about it…you are always with you. In this month’s edition of Toilet Times, the H.O.P.E. Club will be covering Self-Love and Self Care in more detail. For this week, here is a snippet to think about. An article published in Psychology Today reported “roughly 85% of people worldwide have low self-esteem." Low self-esteem has been linked to violent behavior, school dropout rates, low academic achievement, and more. Social media is one factor in our lives that affects our self-esteem either positively or negatively. While it helps us make connections and inspires us, it can encourage unhealthy comparisons that lower our self-esteem. Be sure to turn your attention to the TV monitors for the Mindful Monday Highlight for recommendations from club members and experts on how to use social media to boost your self-esteem!
