Teachers' Pets: A Pet Spooktacular

On Halloween, we love seeing all of the Senior costumes and the creativity our Seniors put into them every year. We thought to ourselves, "Self, what could possibly top Seniors in awesome costumes?" Then inspiration struck us: Pets in Costumes.

We asked the high school teachers and staff to help us out, and they delivered. Below, you'll find some spectacular pet costumes, and we hope you enjoy.

The Eco-Challenge at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the percentage of environmental scientists and ecologists is steadily growing. Part of the reason could easily be the increasing number of botanical gardens around the world and the number of activities for children inside of them. Carlynton School District is lucky to have a garden less than 20 minutes from its community. Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens was constructed in 1893 as a gift to the city of Pittsburgh. Including this year, and five years prior, our local conservatory has hosted a middle school and high school event called the Eco-Challenge. This educational event teaches of the different works and wonders an environmental scientist can do to make real and positive change in the world. This year approximately 25 students in grades 6, 7, and 8 in the Gifted and Enrichment program attended the Eco Challenge at Phipps on September 12, 2019. Next to Phipps is a school-sized building powered entirely by solar power. In t...

Spanish Students of the Month

A student of the month is an individual who shows an outstanding work of determination and responsibility. The Spanish teacher, Mrs. Rusinko, has been seeking for those qualities in students over the past month. Since 2014, Carlynton Jr. Sr. High School has been hosting Spanish classes with Mrs. Rusinko. These students get to pick from a list of Spanish names and are called that when somebody needs their attention. During this class, students explore a world of unique cultures and learn about the diversity between many Spanish countries and the United States. The Spanish students of the months, Bridget (Lola) Maloy, Clara (Diego) Keller, Leah, (Celia) Zielinski, and Shelby (Gabriela) Palmer have shown a great deal of hard work and dedication throughout the month. They have put a lot of time and effort into becoming exceptional individuals. Being chosen as a student of the month is quite an honor and these student should be proud. Olivia Thompson 7t...

Homecoming Dance

Homecoming is something many people look forward to during their high school years. For the Sophomores, it's one of the first traditional dances they’re invited to. For Juniors, it's a celebration of growing up, a right of passage. And for Seniors, it's one of the last big dances they attend before graduation, and a chance to run for Homecoming King or Queen. Homecoming court always creates a stir among students, be it underclassmen wondering which running seniors will win titles, or hopeful voters eager to see if their favorite candidate will be crowned King or Queen. This year, however, Homecoming elections sparked a very different conversation among students. Initially scheduled for Friday's pep rally, the heavily anticipated announcements of King and Queen were postponed until the Homecoming football game at the last minute. Mr. Loughren teased students on stage with an envelope holding the King and Queen winners, building suspense before announcing...
