Minden Whippet Activity Update for December 12th through the 18th. GO WHIPPETS!
Nate Jensen, a Civil Engineer from Olsson & Associates, discussed the importance of communication in his career.
“You need the body language and the emotions of face-to-face communication.”
Important tips for the kids:
1. Define expectations
2. Silence is unsettling
3. Perception is reality
The Linguistics 8 class is inviting speakers into the classroom to discuss the importance of communication in careers, life events, hobbies, & adult interactions. Last week, we were lucky enough to host Adam Waite, a graphic designer & a drummer.
"Communicating through music is one of the most important parts of my life."
I would like to congratulate our most recent postseason football award winners. The Kearney Hub All-Region Football Team recipients were First Team Offense: Daulton Kuehn. First Team Defense: Caden Bradley, Bronson Glanzer, and Carter Harsin. Second Team Offense: Rylan Holsten, Seth Hauserman, Brycen Schwenka, and Daniel Eagle-Elk. Second Team Defense: Austin Luktemeier, Braiden Schroeder, and Jake Ryan.
We are planning on a regular start time tomorrow. We will call as early as possible if there is a change to the school day. There are areas that could be slick. If you feel it is not safe please call your school and let them know. Give yourself extra time and space. Be safe.
TeamMates breakfast is postponed tomorrow due to not knowing what the weather will be. We will let everyone know as soon as we have a new date.
12/8 Activity Update: The 7th and 8th grade girls basketball games scheduled for today have been cancelled and were not able to be rescheduled. The High School Wrestling dual vs. Wood River has been postponed. We are working to find a date to reschedule the wrestling dual.
Due to the hazardous roads and the change in the weather, Minden Public Schools will not have school today. Be safe, as roads are becoming slick quickly.
