There was a good crowd in attendance at the St. Mary’s/Holy Cross dinner Sunday at Keuterville. Click on the photo for a larger view.

On March 13th, nine students traveled to Kamiah to participate in Hands-On Health presented by the AHEC and the WWAMI pre-medical programs. Three local healthcare practitioners met with students to describe their daily work experiences and educational paths in their chosen careers in phlebotomy, physical therapy, and nursing. Students were also able to participate in hands-on activities and simulations including injection of medicine with the nurses and blood typing with the phlebotomist.

Fifth and sixth grade students at St. John Bosco Academy recently participated in an etiquette dinner.  The students prepared for the dinner by discussing etiquette in class, focusing on how to communicate politely and how to compliment others and servers.  They reviewed basic table manners such as no elbows on the table and that it’s polite to try everything on the plate.  They learned how to cut meat, use a napkin properly, and show that you are finished eating.  They also had separate boys and girls discussions to focus on gentlemanly and ladylike behavior. The meal was held in the evening and the students arrived in dresses and suits.  For the meal, the students enjoyed fancy appetizers, tri-tip, potatoes, sparkling cider, and a brownie with chocolate ganache and strawberry.   Joshua Warren and Kaelyn Lustig were awarded Mr. and Miss Etiquette.   Following the dinner, the students played an epic game of kickball in the gym.  Pictured are the fifth & sixth grade with the evening’s hosts, Mr. & Mrs. Barga, as well as Miah Mager, Catherine Seubert and Mr. Rehder who were servers for the dinner.
