CANDY EXCHANGE

Article Written by Kennedy Roehl and Nikki Hardrath

On the days after Halloween, the Family and Community Service

class went the elementary school cafeteria to buy back Halloween

candy. In exchange for candy, students received healthy snacks and

a toothbrush. The 100 pounds of candy that was collected will be

sent to troops overseas through Operation Gratitude. Our class

would like to thank the W Dental Group that volunteered to pay for

the postage to send the candy to Operation Gratitude. The students

hope for a safe return for our troops and wish them luck on their

mission.

Lackland ISD E-News College Week Page 6 of 11 www.lacklandisd.net Nov. 09, 2012

Last week Stacey High School celebrated college week. Students learned the importance of

furthering their education….the more you learn, the more you earn. Students participated in trivia

questions, made pennants for their locker, and wore their favorite college shirts. On Thursday

Generation Texas visited with the student body. GenTX helps students with the steps needed to

take on the path to college and career education, from taking the right classes and tests, to

applying to colleges, and then finding the money to pay for school. You can visit their website at

www.gentx.org. Stacey always continues to talk to students about the importance of education,

even when it is not college week. This week Dr. Hengst from UTSA visited with juniors and

seniors. She explained the differences between college and high school and what students need to

be thinking about to have a successful future. Parents and students are always welcome to visit

the College and Career readiness center in the Stacey Counseling area. The center has a lot of

great information about college and career options. Scholarship opportunities can be found in the

readiness center (outside the counselors office) and in high school hallway. If you have any other

questons please contact Mrs. Rue or Ms. Nicholson, the Stacey Jr/Sr High counselors.

Lackland ISD E-News Learning About Nutrition Page 7 of 11 www.lacklandisd.net Nov. 09, 2012

LEARNING ABOUT NUTRITION Article by Annorra Casias

The Stacey Family and Community Services class has started their project funded by

the 3e’s grant that Lackland ISD received. The high school students are responsible

for teaching the elementary about the importance of nutrition. There first project

was to organize and set up a booth at the Fall Carnival. The students made yummy

vampire bites created out of apples and peanut butter. Students passed out the

vampire bites for free to hungry customers. Students handed out flyers about the

importance of eating healthy and explained the Candy Buy Back program. Their

second project was to create videos with nutrition tips. Every week the elementary

students will watch Friday’s Food Fact. The videos discuss a wide range of topics,

such as the importance of eating vegetables, why you should drink water, healthy food

options, and much more.
