Senior Vs. Staff Basketball Game - The game occurred on Thursday, March 29th and in previous blogs I posed the question,"Will the Seniors finally win this year?" Though the faculty keeps getting older but our Senior students stay the same age... we took care of business and beat the Seniors again! Myself, along with the rest of our staff trained hard to bring home the gold ball, please enjoy the post-game picture of me with the trophy.....I worked hardest to grow my mustache...
