Greek Fest!

David Bryant — Fri, 10 Mar 2017 17:11:50 +0000

The 10th grade class, with their teacher, Mr. David Henry, recently completed their readings in the Ancient Greek period — such classics as Homer’s Iliad and Thucydides’ History of the Pelopennesian War. They celebrated their accomplishment by experiencing some Greek culture for themselves — food, costumes, weaponry, and, naturally, funeral games (Thor Anderson finished as champion).

91ԭ�� High Schoolers Visit Austin

David Bryant — Wed, 22 Feb 2017 00:01:28 +0000

The 91ԭ�� 9th and 10th grade classes traveled to Austin on February 15-16, 2017, to attend Nacogdoches-SFA Days at the Texas State Legislature. The students met State Senator Robert Nichols and State Representative Travis Clardy. The group also toured the capitol and visited two museums. This trip has become a tradition for 91ԭ�� students, who study Government in the 10th grade and then are able to see government in action at a state level. We are so proud of our students, who represented their families and their school so excellently.

The students are pictured below with their Government teacher David Henry, 91ԭ�� parent and board Vice-Chairman David Alders, and State Rep. Travis Clardy. Appearing in the second picture below are Lance Vermillion and Kilyn James.

Huge congratulations go to 91ԭ�� senior Haley Duke, who received the final word of her appointment to the US Military Academy at West Point last Friday. Haley is now the fourth of four sisters to attend West Point — a first in the history of this prestigious institution. Two of Haley’s older sisters are also graduates of 91ԭ��.

Great job, Haley — we are very proud of you!

A Trip to the Renaissance Festival

David Bryant — Wed, 13 Nov 2013 11:51:13 +0000

The 91ԭ�� juniors and seniors, along with three of their teachers, took a trip to the School Days of the Texas Renaissance Festival, near Plantersville, Texas, last week. A day of fun with Renaissance food, costumes, and entertainment, as well as elephant rides and a nice afternoon downpour made it a truly memorable day. Since it was School Days (and therefore closed to the general public) we were able to enjoy the day without the distractions of alcohol and rowdy faire-goers.

Yes, there were barbarians, too (can you pick him out?).

Thankful for Minoru

David Bryant — Tue, 12 Nov 2013 11:47:31 +0000

91ԭ�� recently said goodbye to its Japanese exchange student, Minoru Sumazono, who returned to his home in Tokyo. Minoru spent about 3 months with his new friends in East Texas, but it felt much longer since he so quickly became a part of our lives. We said goodbye to Minoru with a party, a cake, a signed 91ԭ�� yearbook, and a Texas belt buckle to take home.

We will miss you, Minoru!
