Please support Key Club by participating in their annual Reverse Calendar Food Drive this month. Each day there is a food item to be brought in (see attached calendar and posters in school). This will be a CLASS COMPETITION as well! Each class will have their own box in the lobby to put food in and at the end of the month each class will earn points toward Student Council's Winter Carnival competitions! We will donate all food to The Caring Community Cupboard in Old Town, which serves many of our RSU 34 families. Thanks for your help with this important project!

OTHS Robotics brought three teams and competed hard at Saturday's VEX Robotics Competition. In this year's game, "Spin Up", teams design and program a robot that scores points by gathering discs into a scoring zone, shooting discs into a basket, changing a color roller to their team's color, and by being over as many floor tiles as possible at the end of the match. Teams score bonus points by being the best in the autonomous (pre-programmed) round, then the human drivers take over the controls. Trouble-shooting on-site is key; each team has a "pit" where they can repair and adjust robots between matches. OTHS teams used a clever trick by deploying a weighted "tail" at the end of the match to be on top of more floor tiles than the robot's dimensions would normally allow. Congratulations to Saturday's crew of Cassidy, Dylan, Ian, and Kaegan - and many thanks to Coach Lewin!
Tonight our staff was treated to dinner, great company, and the presence of old friends and new - as the OTHS Student Council put on the annual Staff Dinner during Parent/Teacher Conferences - Thank you for dinner, love, and support of your educators!
