Dr. Cramer’s dissection lab

Student Life

Treyton Owens (11) participates in the pig dissection lab in Dr. Cramer’s Anatomy class. “In the picture, I was removing tissue no longer needed, so my group and I could see the digestive system that we need to know for our up coming practical exam...The dissection has helped me a lot. Instead of learning by looking at pictures, I actually get to open a pig up and see first hand where certain things are located and what their functions are,” Owens said.

club spotlight | FFA Señor Jerrell’s tango demonstration Hand in hand, Sierra Divine (10) and Steven Pratt (11) take steady steps to match the pace of the song Señor Jerrell plays for them to tango. Others around them do the same, trying to keep up with the song playing.

On Dec. 7, the Scottsburg FFA hosted their first annual Santa Breakfast. The chapter invited community members to come visit Santa Claus and enjoy a breakfast of mini pancakes, sausage links and eggs. Attendees were welcome to participate in various Christmas themed crafts, activities and games. In addition, all were welcome to take pictures with Santa and Mrs. Claus as well as listen to well known Christmas stories be read by FFA members. All proceeds of the breakfast were donated to We Care. Members felt that it was important to give back to the community and went into the breakfast with hopes that it would foster community involvement and raise money for children in need. The chapter is excited to continue this new event in the future.

Letter from the Editors With every issue we produce of The Booster, it usually feels like the most stress I have ever been through. Especially the week our newspaper is sent to press to be printed. Most of the staff knows how panicked and stressed Jaiden and I become, while Sadie is the one to calm us down. This stress stems from the headaches caused by deadlines and the pressure we are put under to produce a great paper for you, our readers. Deadlines can make or break us, and it is most definitely the worst part of what we do. Things can always go wrong and fall through at anytime. We are proud of our

staff for always having the ideas to remedy any problem we are faced with and being able to turn any idea into an even better one. However, some months are harder than others to produce the paper. Months where SHS is on break, such as fall break and spring break, make producing the paper so much more difficult. Days when the staff cannot get together create a headache 10 times more potent due to deadlines. Our readers may not understand the dilemmas we have to produce a paper, where our main aim is to inform the school of events and important happenings.
