Congratulations to this week’s Artist of the Week, Jaiden N. Skiro. She is an incredible visual art student in and out of the classroom. Jaiden takes every art challenge presented to her and finds a way to make it hers. If she had to choose an art medium as her favorite, it would be acrylic paint. “I really enjoy working with acrylic paints in either marker or palette form. It’s the medium I used often as a kid so I’m more comfortable with it.” Jaiden has recently been chosen to represent Lycoming County in the PennDOT’s “Paint the Plow” art contest. High school art students were invited to submit creative artwork for consideration from surrounding counties. This program allows PennDOT and local communities to cultivate public awareness and promote winter driving safety on state roadways. Jaiden will be painting her winning design onto a retired plow blade which once completed will be on display at our local county maintenance office. Her plans include attending Penn State University and majoring in Psychology with a concentration towards art therapy. When asked what art means to her she stated, “Art allows me to escape from the world around us. It’s a way to ground myself and distracts me from everything. Art is always there and can be created in many different forms. Even a simple pencil drawing can get a point across.”

Elementary MVP's of the Month
Students in 5th grade have been learning about Hispanic Heritage month. On Friday, students had the opportunity to try traditional Hispanic foods, and participate in a traditional craft!
Football - Trace Furman
Trace has played outstanding football for the Red Raider on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball this season. He brings a tremendous work ethic to practice each day and is developing into a strong leader. Last week against Northwest he found the endzone on both sides of the ball. He caught 4 passes for 61 yards and a TD! He also had a pick 6!
Great job Trace!
Cheer - Emily Geiger
Emily is a fantastic leader both on the sidelines and at game day! As a captain, she leads the team through cheers, dances, stunts, and general spirit within the school. As a dual athlete both in cheer and soccer, she balances her schedule with ease and is a team player! We are grateful to have Emily as a captain this year.
Well done Emily!
Tennis - #1 Doubles Team of Ava Hartman and Madison Budman
Madison Budman and Ava Hartman deserve to be recognized for their perseverance and strength in tennis. They have worked really hard and stayed dedicated as partners and friends. They spent much time refining their skills and shaping each other into quarter-final-level athletes. This was Maddy’s last match for the season, and will be playing in the doubles districts match on October 19th.
Good luck ladies!
Girls Soccer - Rihanna Arredondo
Rihanna comes to practice and games every day with a positive attitude and a tremendous work ethic. She is always willing to be coached and applies instructions to her playing. Rihanna is a tremendous teammate and has made great contributions to our team and is a large part of our success this season.
Keep it up Rihanna!
Coach Sherman had this to say about Conor:
Conor's ability to keep the ball out of the net has been a major factor in our 8 win total so far this season. He recorded 2 important shutouts last week against South Williamsport and Sullivan County this week to jump the Red Raiders up to the #5 seed in PIAA District 4. The South victory was the first time beating them in the 10 matches since resurrecting the program in 2020. Conor is a leader on and off the field. His ability to change the point of attack with his punts is a huge asset to the team. He is also a student of the game by reviewing Hudl film in the off hours to study his opponents. Opposing coaches have commented on his natural athletic ability, never give up mentality and leadership in the face of adversity displayed from this extremely talented sophomore. Well done Conor... keep up the good work as we look ahead to the playoffs!
Congratulations Conor!
