Hall Food!

We'd like to thank Austin Hopkins and his family for the awesome hall food last Wednesday night! It was the perfect event to sustain us just long enough to get to extended. Thanks, Austin!

January Programming!

Let’s face it, the winter isn’t much fun here at NCSSM. It’s cold, and the sun sets as soon as the last class dismisses (at least that’s what it feels like!), but us First Hunters try to make the best of things! To make the season a bit merrier, we like to come together and have fun with some hall activities. So far this month we have done yoga, had a ping pong tournament, gone to local coffee shops, had meditation, played dodge ball. And that’s just to name a few! We tend to have a program every day. Sometimes they last around 15 minutes (like having a paper airplane flying contest) and others may last a few hours. Rest assured though, the lengthier programs are saved for weekends, so they don’t interfere with studying! All in all that’s the goal of programming, to provide a source of stress relief, fun, and brotherhood. I personally think that they make life here a lot easier.

And we have some fun things coming up in the following weeks! It’s going to be awesome!

Winter Sports Season!

We are almost finished with the second trimester, and it is a fitting time that we recognize our winter sports athletes. In indoor track, Chris Panuski is running like cheetahs. In swimming, Kyle Riker, Austin Hopkins, Connor Davis, Will Milligan, and Logan Herrera are conquering the seas under the leadership of our very own SLI, Michael Newbauer. And last but not least, in wrestling, Seth Templeton, Jeshua Ray, and Vitchyr Pong are dominating the mat. These students have had to juggle both the demanding curriculum of second trimester and a time-consuming varsity sport. They have practiced every weekday and have represented First Hunt extremely well in their respective sports. Thank you athletes for your commitment and perseverance!
