Students in junior high have an incentive opportunity next semester that begins now and will end with a splash for those who excel for the remainder of this semester. 

On Monday, January 24, from 8:15 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., junior high students will be traveling to Big Splash Adventure In French Lick. The admission will be $10 per student and must be paid in advance.

The event is to reward those who were excellent students during the current nine-weeks. Eligible students for the trip will have no Fs and no Friday schools or suspensions form the current nine-weeks to participate.

“The junior high teachers hope it inspires some students to put more effort into their school work.  We also want to reward students who consistently work to achieve in school. We want to show students that we appreciate their efforts,” said Junior High AVID Coordinator Tamera Noble.

The students in attendance will need to bring money for lunch or a sack lunch that can be requested from the cafeteria. They will also need a towel, a bathing suit and a bag for all clothes.
