Most years we have students play who are just learning how to play. These students usually have the most fun and make the most gains in the season.

***FFA members please check your email for the Google Form about SAE's. See Mr. Zobeck if you have any questions about this. This is not mandatory, but encouraged. All that complete the Google Form will be recognized at the Gresham FFA Banquet on Saturday May 6th. Google Forms are due by Friday March 31st.
***Here are a few words of wisdom:
When was the last time you flew a kite . . . or watched a kite flying? What
keeps a kite in the air? The wind, right? But is the kite flying with the wind
or against it? It's flying against the wind. American writer and editor Frank
Harris says:
Strong people are made by opposition
like kites that go up against the wind.
We all face opposition in our lives. But when we face our problems, when
we don't try to run from them . . . or hide from them . . . or pretend they
don't exist, we become stronger human beings. We let our problems -like
the wind to a kite-lift us up to a higher place.
If you find yourself up against a problem today, make like a kite. Face it
head on. You'll be a stronger person for it.
With something to think about, Make it a great day . . or not. The choice is yours.
