Celebrating 26 years of

Speak Out The American Cancer Society (ACS) Relay For Life is a lifechanging event which brings people together to celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and empower the individuals and communities to fight back against a disease that claims too much.

By: Raegan Pack

Event History In May 1985, Dr. Gordon Klatt took the first step of his 24-hour marathon around a track in Tacoma, Washington ultimately raising $27,000 for the ACS. A year later, 340 supporters joined the overnight event. Since then, Relay For Life has become ACS’s single largest fundraising activity, connecting more than 4,800 communities across the nation. In 2007, more than 3.5 million participants, including 500,000 cancer survivors, took part in relay events nationwide. It raised over $1.5 billion for cancer, education, services, and advocacy.

Teams of eight to fifteen members gather with tents and sleeping bags to camp out at the football field and take turns walking or running around the track. Because cancer never sleeps, relays are overnight events, and each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times. Each team has chosen a theme and on May 20th, Lonoke students will come together to make a difference. Family Career Community Leaders of America is Blazin’ the trail for a cure, while Fellowship of Christian Athletes is protecting the Blindside. JROTC will be putting up a united front with the Jackrabbit Battalion. Senior Parker Cole has been participating for 10 years. However, this year is a first for him to be the Youth Involvement Chair. His job is “to get the youth of our area involved,” said Cole. He is walking for his mom, his

uncle, his grandfather, his great aunt, and his grandmother who either are battling or have passed away from cancer. Relay For Life gives members an opportunity to celebrate, remember, and fight back against cancer. To celebrate cancer survivors, teams invite them to participate in the Survivors Lap, the first lap around the track. Another highlight of the event is the Luminaria Ceremony. A luminary is a small bag filled with sand that contains a candle which makes it glow. Every luminary is in memory or honor of a person who has battled cancer. At sunset, the candles are lit along the sides of the track. They burn into the night, honoring and remembering those who have faced cancer, while lighting the path of hope. Luminaries can be purchased from any team leader for $10. The proceeds go to support the ACS.

Science Club and Math Club sponsored the American Red Cross Blood Drive behind the school cafeteria on February 14th. With the help of the Red Cross staff, volunteers, and students, over 30 pints of blood were donated. Almost anyone can donate blood, but there are certain restrictions. If the donators have high levels of

iron or if they do not fit the weight/height requirements they cannot donate. The donated blood will be used to save lives. Combining the blood drive in November with the February blood drive, over 90 pints of blood were donated. According to blood drive personnel, that is the equivalent of saving over 270 lives.

“From the EAST By: EAST student Artice Morris

EAST classes at LHS have been helping the Jackrabbit Booster Club this year by taking pictures, creating posters, and preparing for annual sports banquets. “The Jackrabbit Booster Club continued to step forward and help support all sports,” said Booster Club member, Mrs. Lou Ann Howell, “not just the biggest and most popular.” This club helps fund the Lonoke sporting events. They provide money to the athletes for uniforms, shoes, and other necessities. EAST students and Mrs. Phyllis Elam, EAST facilitator, helped this organization by attending many sporting events and taking pictures, especially of seniors. The pictures of senior athletes were downloaded onto EAST computers and transformed into posters that were hung at the annual Fall Sports Banquet. In preparation for sports banquets, EAST students also created Lonoke brochures that list each sport, coach, and players of the past season. EAST students stayed after school last semester to help decorate the LHS cafeteria for the banquet by hanging posters and setting tables. Even though EAST has done much for the Booster Club this year, more help is still needed.

EAST classes at LHS are helping Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) spread the word about being the voice for abused and neglected children. EAST students are doing this by organizing the CASA closet and asking for donations. The mission of CASA is to support and promote court-appointed volunteers for abused and neglected children, so that children can thrive in safe, permanent homes.

CASA in Lonoke County needs clothes for teenagers. The CASA closet has many baby clothes, but teen’s clothes are either in short supply, old, or out of style. Nationally, CASA and its network of over 1,050 local community program offices support volunteers serving children. The role of the local CASA programs is to recruit, train, and support volunteers in working with abused children. EAST seniors Cheyenne Lee, Elvia Negrete, Megan Palmer, Heather Pitts, and Shelbi Raysor work two days a week for one hour a day folding and organizing children’s clothes. Something as simple as this will make it so much easier for a child to find clothes and necessities quickly. CASA in Lonoke County needs clothes for teenagers. The CASA closet has many baby clothes, but teen’s clothes are either in short supply, old, or out of style. The EAST classes are asking for donations of clothes that are still in good shape and for teenagers.

This project will continue until May 15th. You can donate your clothes to the Lonoke County CASA Office on 119 W. Front Street in downtown Lonoke, Arkansas, or to Mrs. Phyllis Elam in the EAST Lab.

The EAST National Service Project is a yearly project for EAST programs to work towards a common goal. The project for this year is for the United Service Organizations (USO). The USO, a congressionally chartered, nonprofit organization, is not part of the federal government. Since 1941, the USO mission has remained the same: to provide morale, welfare and recreation-type services to service members and their families. The LHS EAST students have been supporting troops by making business cards and flyers. These flyers and cards were handed out at football games to inform the public on how to donate. EAST works hard to promote community and nationwide projects. “I feel good that I can make a difference in my community,” said Darin Lovelace, EAST student. If you would like to donate please call the USO at: 1-800-876-7469. Donations can also be sent to the United States Organization P.O. Box 96332 Washington, DC 20090-6322.

LHS EAST classes and Lonoke Lions Club are working together to collect old cell phones and glasses for The Recycling for Sight Program. Donated glasses will be taken to a company to be repaired. This company will take the old lenses out, put new lenses in, and then they become a brand new pair of glasses for someone in need. “At Lonoke High School, our goal is to make sure that every child gets the opportunity to see and learn,” said Mrs. Phyllis Elam, EAST facilitator. The cell phones donated will be exchanged for money from a recycling company. Since children are still in the growing stage of life, they need new glasses often. The money will be used to buy glasses for small children since children’s glasses are in more of a demand. Let the children in Lonoke have a chance to see what we are all about. This project will continue until May 15th. If you have any unused and/or old cell phones or glasses, the EAST classes ask you to donate them for this cause. Take any donations to Mrs. Phyllis Elam in the EAST Lab.

Get Informed Human Trafficking: By: Joelle Tackettt

On November 8, 2007, police discovered a 15-year old girl tied up in a drawer under a bed. She had been abducted and had become a victim of human trafficking. LHS students are traveling overseas every year without having any knowledge of human trafficking and the dangers they face. Sophomore Molly McCall traveled to Brazil in October on a mission trip with her dance teacher, Lana Grober, and members of Grober’s church. McCall said that she stayed with her group at all times. According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV), “human trafficking is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, or receiving of persons by means of force, abduction, fraud, deception, or abuse of power to make profit.” The United States Department of State estimates the number of human trafficking victims to cross international borders per year is from 600,000 to 800,000 people. An estimated 40,000 to 50,000 people are trafficked into the United States. Deportation Officer, Agent Albert Morales, arrests criminals involved in human trafficking and works with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) involving human trafficking issues. According to the NCADV, human trafficking is the “third most

is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, or receiving of persons by means of force, abduction, fraud, deception, or abuse of power to make profi t.

profitable criminal activity.” Morales said that human trafficking is “the second fastest growing criminal industry.” All trafficking activity earns an estimated sum of $9.5 billion a year. Four billion dollars comes from the worldwide brothel industry.

300,000 children are in danger of becoming victims of trafficking. Human trafficking victims are subject to several forms of abuse, including forced prostitution, slavery or some form of service, forcing victims to commit acts of sex to create pornography, and deceiving victims into debt bondage. Approximately 80% of human trafficking involves the use of persons to commit sexual acts, while about 19% involves the use of persons for labor. The effects of trafficking are physically, mentally, and emotionally damaging. According to the NCADV, one study showed that 65% of female victims receive internal physical injuries. Twenty-four percent suffer head injuries and 12% have reported broken bones. Sex trafficking victims are at a ten times higher risk of contracting Human Immunodeficiency

Virus (HIV). Female victims also experience a higher risk of receiving sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), tuberculosis, and permanent damage to their reproductive systems. Sixty-eight percent of female sex trafficking victims show criteria for posttraumatic stress disorder. Children are at risk of becoming trafficking victims, as well. The U.S. Department of State showed that 50% of victims trafficked internationally are under the age of 18. In the United States, up to 300,000 children are in danger of becoming victims of trafficking. The mental health of trafficked children is significantly damaged. A study conducted on trafficked children proved that 71% of them showed suicidal tendencies. Mental health problems such as clinical depression, personality disorders, and dissociative disorders are more than twice as likely to affect trafficked children. As students travel to different places all over the world, Officer Cathy Stivers said that it is important to be watchful and to stay in groups. Morales said that most victims of human trafficking fall into the situation because of their ignorance of trafficking, and he believes it is important for everyone to stay informed. Morales said, “People who know what to look for aren’t at risk.”

Making History Come Alive By: Kaleigh Huff

On April 8th, the AP Literature and Composition and AP World History classes had an opportunity to go on a field trip to Oxford, Mississippi and Memphis, Tennessee. The students visited the home of American writer, William Faulkner, in Oxford. “This trip is important because the students get to see that desk he (Faulkner) sat in front of, that chair he sat in, that pen he used. It makes history come alive,” said Mrs. Jennifer Powers, AP Literature and Composition teacher. After touring Faulkner’s home, Rowan Oak, students traveled to Memphis to tour the National Civil Rights Museum. The idea of the trip arose because Powers wanted “a real life connection with the stories these students are reading.”

Check Out YOUR Teacher!

It can be frustrating to come home at nine o’clock at night and dig through your backpack only to realize that tonight’s homework is still at school. The Lonoke School District has found a solution to this problem. Personalized teacher web pages provide students with the opportunity to learn more about the teacher, prepare for upcoming topics and assignments, and to complete assignments that may have been lost. The web pages include information such as a teachers’ educational background and teaching experience, to help parents and students personally and professionally know their teachers. Some teachers post class calendars, including upcoming assignments. To help students who may struggle with a given subject, some teachers post useful resources and files. Teachers also post pictures of activities available to students in classes. Mrs. Shelle House, English teacher, updates her page twice a week or before a major upcoming assignment. House uploads class notes and assignments and places a calendar on her page. Mrs. Hope, English teacher, places articles and assignments, upcoming important dates, and syllabi. House said the most common

use of the pages, thus far, has been to notify students of upcoming assignments and class events, and to provide students with access to documents for each class. “Things happen,” said House. She believes that web pages provide “insurance that students can have the materials to succeed.” The personalized teacher pages can be found on the Lonoke School District website. History teacher Christine Pickard said, “Anyone with internet access should be able to access the web pages easily.” She believes the pages are “a great addition to our site.”

I heard you went on an Easter But anyway...they had those plastic ...and I had to trip a couple of kids egg hunt. Aren‛t you a little too eggs filled with goodies. I got like to get to the eggs first, but it was 15 candybars and around $85. It all worth it in the end. Overall, it old for that sort of thing? was a great day! was the coolest thing ever!

Of course not! Even though I was the only one there that was over five foot tall.

Even though I did have to shove a little boy because he was trying to steal my candy...

Normally, I would be shocked, but since you made out with $85, I applaud your behavior.
