Also, you and your students can participate by dressing in “costumes” from your culture; especially on Friday the 26^th.

Finally, we would like each staff member to bring some type of ethnic treat to share with the staff.  We are not talking about anything like a meal; maybe pastries, breads, appetizers, etc.  Bring these during the week of February 22^nd-26^th and leave them in the Staff Lounge.  Please email me and let me know what you are bringing and it’s history in your culture (where it came from, do you have it at family functions, that kind of thing).  We will be preparing note cards to place alongside each dish so that everyone gets the chance to learn a little about your ethnicity.

More information will be forthcoming and especially if your club will be participating

The victory in the North Sequoia League opener boosted Washington to 11-10 overall.

“It was a good team effort, everybody contributed,” coach Tony Petersen said. “Kerman made a couple runs and we held our composure. We were able to fight them off and put them away at the end.”

Senior guard Jose Rivas led the Panthers with 16 points, including 3 of 4 free throws in the final three minutes.

The Panthers forced 21 turnovers while committing just seven.

“We played good defense, we just need to convert our turnovers,” Petersen said.

Junior guard Akili Arnold scored 10 for the Panthers, followed by junior forward Rance Hightower with nine. Junior center DeAndre Dickson added six points, nine rebounds and two assists. His steal in the final two minutes helped put away Kerman.

So did two free throws from senior reserve John Hills, who is now 4 for 4 for the season.

The victory made it a basketball sweep of Kerman this week by Washington. Both girls teams beat Kerman on Tuesday, and the JV boys beat the Lions 36-33 Wednesday. Dashawn Fletcher led the Panthers with 15 points.

The Panthers are back in action Friday at Chowchilla. The next home game is Wednesday night against Yosemite — JV at 5:30, varsity at 7.

Welcome to the new and improved website for Washington Union High School District! Our new platform, Panthers Live, addresses many of the shortcomings of traditional school websites.

Here are just a few of the new features:

• Every teacher has the ability to manage his or her own website.  This empowers teachers to post classroom materials, reminders, and lessons.
• Every student/teacher/parent/guest can customize the homepage to show “feeds” from different parts of the website.  This is a simple and effective way to funnel the relevant information right out of the mess, and stay updated.
• Follow us on Twitter, and receive text messages when there is updated information.
• The calendar system is much improved!!  Print events in week, month, or agenda formats, or add them to your own calendar with just a click.
• Stay up to date with the Principal:Mr. Campbell says,

Washington Union has launched a ground breaking website for a school district. The promise of the internet and social websites is the ability to communicate and make distant communities small. Washington Union seeks to make our community of parents, students and teachers smaller by making communication easier.
