We’re excited to get the season started! Practice begins right after school tomorrow and runs until 5:30 PM.
At 5:30 PM, there will be a parent meeting in the Commons with Mr. Wettstein to go over season details and answer any questions.
Middle School Wrestling will start in November — more information will be shared soon!
We’re looking forward to a great season — go Trojans! 💪🏽🏀
Bring your holiday spirit (and your appetite!) — more details coming soon.
Last week, we welcomed a representative from Southwest Technical College who shared information about programs available to high school students, including Dual Enrollment, Youth Apprenticeship, and Start College Now.
These programs provide incredible opportunities for students to earn free college credits, gain real-world experience, and jump-start their career paths — all while still in high school! 🌟

Starting secondary school often means new technologies, more independence, and a wider online world. Internet Matters’ “Navigating Secondary School: Online Safety Guide” offers useful advice to help support your teen safely through this transition:
Understand what they’re doing online – From social apps (Snapchat, TikTok, Instagram) to streaming, gaming, and online learning, teens are more connected than ever.
Know the risks – Increased screen time can affect wellbeing, bring pressure to stay connected (FOMO), and can impact self-esteem.
Help them manage peer pressure – Discuss the difference between harmless banter and cyberbullying. Encourage them to speak up if something feels wrong.
Support their digital footprint – Remind them that what they share online can last forever and influence how others see them.
Work with the school – Learn the school’s policies on online safety, mentors, or anti-bullying programs, and know who to contact if issues arise.

Transitioning to secondary school brings big digital changes—new apps, smartphones, and social dynamics. Internet Matters’ “Moving to Secondary School: Online Safety Guide” helps parents support kids as they navigate this next chapter:
Understand what kids are doing online—socializing, expressing themselves, and wanting to fit in with peers.
Prepare for real challenges—the pressure to respond to messages instantly and share photos or content.
Keep communication open—regularly check in with your child about what’s happening online and how they feel.
Establish shared rules—agree on device use, location-sharing, app permissions, and what’s okay to post.
Work together with the school—talk to teachers, know school policies, and stay on the same page about safety.

COME TO SECOND HARVEST ON WEDNESDAY 10/22/25
Cooler temperatures have us thinking of sitting around a fire with family and friends, football games, a big pot of chili simmering on the stove and checking that our pantries are full with the makings for tasty meals. Why not come to beautiful downtown Gays Mills next week to discover what the Second Harvest truck has brought? We’ll have nutritious food to put in your car and will begin distribution at 2:00 and go until 3:00. Pull your vehicle in line and look for Harry to direct you. You’ll be given a menu for the day by the greeter, then tell him the number of households you’re picking up for, and the number of people in each of those households. Also, if there is any item on the selection list you do NOT want, let him know. Please try to have plenty of room in an empty trunk to stash the goods. In September, we gave out food to 300 households. Thank you, Second Harvest! With questions, please call JoAnn Gonos (608)-872-2583.
The WIAA playoff bracket will be released at 10am on Saturday morning. Tune in to see who the Trojans will play Week 1 of the playoffs on October 18 at 1pm!

Children in primary school are navigating a digital world from an early age. Whether they’re using tablets or watching YouTube, it’s important to build safe habits early. Internet Matters’ “Discovering Digital at Primary School” guide offers helpful advice to support young learners as they explore online:
Know what they’re doing online – From tablets to games and YouTube, be curious and ask them to show you their favorite activities.
Talk about risks – Help them understand why some content isn’t appropriate, how oversharing can be risky, and what cyberbullying looks like.
Manage screen time – Create healthy habits by setting time limits and balancing online with offline play.
Use parental controls – Schools use filters; use similar tools at home to help block adult or age-inappropriate content.
Keep communication open – Use stories and questions to start conversations, make shared decisions about what's okay to do online, and let kids know it’s always safe to talk if something goes wrong.
