Marysville Schools to host "The Disappearing Teen"

Our teens, and preteens, are experiencing pressures and stresses unlike any experienced before. Drugs, alcohol, depression, anxiety, suicide, suicidal thoughts, and social networking are among the many stressors our children are facing in society today. As parents and educators struggle to help their children and students, it’s often unclear the best path to take. We have invited Dr. Lisa Machoian to help us as we strive to keep our children safe, mentally healthy, and happy.

Dr. Machoian will be presenting to the public on Thursday evening, August 19th, at 7:00 p.m. at Marysville High School’s auditorium. This is open and free to the public and the county. There will be a time at the end of her presentation for questions. She will then present to the staff of Marysville Schools on the morning of August 20th. Even if your children are young, this is a presentation you won’t want to miss! The teen years will be here before you know it. Her visit and presentation are paid for with grant funding.

MHS Destination Imagination Team Takes Second Place at State Competition

front: Kelsey Mack, Hannah Putney
back: Chris Williams, Bryan Langlois, Pat Ralston, Nick Chuvalas, Maurice Smith

This Marysville High School Destination Imagination team took second place medals at state competition earning them a berth at Global Tournament, to be held in Knoxville TN, May 26-29. They have worked since fall on their chosen challenge, DIrect DIposit. They wrote an 8 minute skit about a decision involving risk and reward, performed at the same time as other team members were transferring objects over a barrier 6 ft high into 1 ft targets - and the operator of the delivery equipment was not allowed to see the targets. Their "Monster" equipment involved a rain gutter, bicycle tire and chain, a power drill to make a conveyor belt to drop the small objects into their targets.

Good luck at Globals!
