Kindness Week kicked off today with style! Every student received neon sunglasses with kind or encouraging phrases on the sides to promote "Kindness is COOL!" Tomorrow wear a camo shirt for "Don't hide, be Kind!" If you haven't sent a colored shirt with your student to be reverse tie dyed with BLEACH please do so by tomorrow. These shirts or other tie dye shirts will be worn on Thursday.









The FFA students wrapped up National FFA Week by hosting an appreciation luncheon for school faculty on Thursday. On Friday, the FFA Officers hosted an Ag mechanics lab for the fifth through seventh grade students!

Super proud of these two young men! Both participated in their first powerlifting meet today, which just happened to be the 8-Man State Powerlifting Meet, and represented Medford very well! Lyam Kilian totaled 1000 lbs for his 3 lift total and finished 7th out of 40 lifters in the 181 lb class. Kien Willet totaled 895 lbs for his 3 lift total and finished 18th out of 40 lifters in the 181 lb class. Next up is the Class 2A-C Regional meet on March 8. Great job, young men! #cardinalpowerlifting
