Thank you for Mrs. Linda McIntosh for coming to teach the Anatomy and Physiology students how to do suturing. They were able to practice on pigs feet and simulated skin.
Due to Palestine-Wheatley using an ineligible player in our August 28 contest, Palestine-Wheatley has forfeited the game. As a result, our football team has been awarded a Week 0 victory over Palestine-Wheatley, improving our overall record to 3-1.
