Thursday was The Great American Smokeout, a national day where smokers are encouraged to quit. The McHenry County Health Department came out this week during lunches to do nicotine trivia and pass out materials. Our goal is to keep students informed on the negative effects of nicotine.
On Thursday and Friday American Studies students participated in the annual Chautauqua! They played figures from either history or modern day and discussed multiple perspectives on social issues they researched. #WarriorReady156
