Our high school math class got a surprise visit from the Grinch last week! Students grabbed their tape measures to practice measuring the Grinch’s height and put their estimation skills to work by estimating the volume of various objects around the school. Proof that math can be festive, hands-on, and relevant — even with a little Grinchy mischief mixed in!

On behalf of our wrestling team, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to the town of Pavillion for the constant support you’ve shown us, both on and off the mat. As a small token of appreciation, we were honored to give back by hanging Christmas lights up at City Park, hoping to add a little extra cheer to a community that means so much to us. Thank you for your encouragement, your pride in our athletes, and the strong sense of unity that makes Pavillion such a special place. From all of us, we wish you a warm and joyful Christmas season.
