Please help the Yearbook Committee by uploading photos for the yearbook. (Sports, friends, school work, volunteering, etc.) Since we aren't able to be present in the school we are relying on supplied photos. Thank you!!

Brynn Weiss Intermediate, Literature TRAILWOOD AWARD OF EXCELLENCE
We All Matter I chose to write about three people who think that they are useless because it shows that everyone has a purpose in this world. You may find yours earlier or later than other people, but everyone matters. You, your friends, your family, and everyone you've ever known make your mark on the planet, and no matter where you choose to go or why you do these things you matter. This story shows the important lesson that nobody matters more or less than one another, and everyone ever has a purpose.
District Level Award of Merit
Elyse Keairns Visual Arts, Intermediate TRAILWOOD AWARD OF EXCELLENCE
Peacemakers In the world right now, there is a lot of fighting. This piece shows two friends that are different but alike. They matter because they both want the world to be a better place. A world that is peaceful and equal.
District Level Honorable Mention
Kennedy Jones Visual Arts, Middle School Intermediate TRAILWOOD AWARD OF EXCELLENCE
"WE" Matter I chose to replace "I" with "WE" because I only matter if we all matter. We all matter for the reasons that I put on my artwork.

Strands of Me This artwork is about what really matters about me. It also shows the qualities I have. What really matters isn’t on the outside, it’s on the inside!
