In Mrs. James’ Physics class on Thursday, September 10th, they made derby cars out of potatoes. First, they had to get with a partner and then get their potatoes. After that they had to make the potato into whatever shape they wanted. They then had to put wheels on so they could roll them down the derby track. Everyone had a lot of fun and they learned a lot too.
Are you ever wondering what’s new and upcoming at our High school but don’t know where to look? Well look no further, Mrs. Elletts commercial art class will be starting podcasts to update the students of Wayne High on what’s going on! Such as sports, events, activities, and more! We will try to update regularly. We will also post the podcasts either on the school website or on the TV in the foyer. Thanks to Mrs. Ellett, we have got a bunch of equipment to make the podcasts, like a cool new green screen! We hope everyone can engage in this because it is important for our students to be involved!
In the college class Criminal Justice by Dennis Schugk, the classes of all online schools and the college campus were given a unique and surprisingly interesting project. The project was to have a group of 8 students work together to survive on an island then create a form of government. The students were given a choice of supplies and one additional partner per person which can also carry supplies. Another thing to note is that all other groups from other schools were placed on different areas of the island. The most entertaining of the projects were the punishments. One final interesting aspect of the project was what you were going to do with the other groups on the island. There were no restrictions about what you can do and how you do it. The map above will describe the different countries, their government, and their strategy including punishments. It is a rather interesting game… project and trying it yourself might prove entertaining.
On August 31st, the clubs FCCLA and HOSA conducted an Opening Social with their members and some other schools. The location of the event was at Fish Lake. The other schools consisted of Piute and North Sevier. At the Opening Social they had several activities and pizza with snow cones along with other foods. Due to COVID rules masks were worn and pizza was shared only amongst the individual schools. There were several events such as bingo and a poster making competition. This year the organizers for this event decided to do board/card games with members being swapped from every group every few minutes. The organizers for this year’s Opening Social were Jasper James(Wayne), Mizuki Ito(Wayne), and Sierra Bullard(North Sevier). The Advisors for the schools were Joni Taft(Wayne), Deborah James(Wayne), Coylene Brinkerhoff(North Sevier), Holly Westwood(Piute).
