materials by Wednesday, February 15. Be sure to get the necessary

*Social isolation* is the feeling of being left out, lonely and treated
like you are invisible. NHS is running a *Start with Hello* poster contest.
Students are asked to illustrate why it’s important to recognize social
isolation. Each poster will have the general statement End Social Isolation
#StartWithHello. Possible poster ideas: Effects of social isolation, making
people feel welcome in our school, being friendly to those you don’t know,
just starting with saying hello. Students who wish to enter the contest are
asked to create a drawing on the entry form or digitally. Entry forms can
be found in the office or by going to the link on tabs located on posters
around the school and must be submitted by Friday, February 3rd. The
winning posters will be used during *Start with Hello* week from February
6th through the 10th.

*TIME TO BREAK OUT THOSE COIN JARS!* From Jan. 30 to Feb. 10, Key Club is
hosting a Coin War to raise money for countries without a clean water
supply. The average American uses 176 gallons of water per day and a drink
of fresh, clean water is never more than a few feet out of reach. In
comparison, an average African family uses only 5 gallons of water per day
and they must travel for miles every morning to obtain it, and still it
isn’t promised that it is safe for them. Over 40 billion work hours are
lost each year in Africa to the need to fetch drinking water. There will
be a table set up during lunch with jars in which you can donate your extra
change and vote for two teachers to be soaked with water. Donate $1 and
enter a raffle for a chance to soak a teacher.

Volunteers are needed to help at concession on Saturday, February 11 for
Wrestling Regionals. There are several shifts available from 8:30 a.m. –
2:30 p.m. Please stop in the counseling office to sign up.

*Attention Workbound Students*: The next meeting is Monday, February 6,
at 6:00 or 7:15. First year students, bring resume materials. Second year
students, remember to dress appropriately as you will be meeting with a
professional mentor.
