Final CA Olympics held
Eighth graders in Mr. Randy Turner's communication arts class said goodbye to two class staples- the Cup O'Nickels and CA Olympics Tuesday as first through fifth hours competed in writing games.
The winning team each hour played for the Cup o'Nickels with each member of the first-place team receiving a shiny nickel.
CA Olympics were played three times during the school year to give students a welcome break from the regular grind, but still allow them to practice their writing skills.
