Lindee Carson saddles up, competes in barrel racing
By Tana Pickle
Lindee Carson, a freshman, has
been barrel racing all of her life.
“My mom and my grandma were
professional barrel racers, and my grandma is still training horses,” said Carson.
Carson has been around horses
her entire life.
“My family has been ranching
over 60 years,” she said.
Carson does a type of barrel racing called break-away.
“In break-away you tie a rope
with a cotton string to a saddle, rope the
calf, and try to break the string,” said Carson.
Carson competes in the Kansas
High School Rodeo and places all over
Kansas. She also competes in Beaver,
Oklahoma, and Buffalo, Oklahoma.
Carson has won many awards
during barrel racing.
“I’ve won the Beef Empire Days,
IFCA open barrel race, Beaver County
Rodeo Club (BCRC) 15-18 barrel racer,
and Harper County Rodeo Club (HCRB)
14-18 barrel racer,” she said.
Carson loves to barrel race, and
it is a big part of her life.
“My favorite part of racing is
when I’m coming around my last barrel to the finish line, I look at my time,
and know that I just won my race,” she
said.
Award-winner: Lindee Carson, freshman, races around barrels, trying to get
the fastest time in competition.
A learning experience: Javier Corpus, Noel Cervantes, Anette
Holguin, and Julieta Corpus explore the public library. ESL teacher
Norma Pando took her class to visit the Cimarron City Library to learn
about the different resources available to all students.

CHS CCR classes collect food for Gray County Food Bank
Two weeks before Thanksgiving, CHS CCR classes conducted
a food drive in order to help restock dwindling supplies at the Gray
Counaty Food Pantry.
In total, students collected 1,447 items, which evened out to
over five items per student.
Students in Charles Dirk’s CCR class were the winners, however; and they and other classes which met their goals were honored
with root beer floats.
The month of November had been designated “Help out your
Community” month, and speakers from local organizations started the
theme by informing students of the many volunteer opportuities in our
immediate community.
In addition during that month, students and teachers also collected items for the Adopt-a-Soldier campaign. Those boxes were
mailed to soldiers serving overseas.
Packing up that Mac: Juniors Jack Berry, Alex Reed, and Cassandra Ortiz help sort items for the Gray County Food Bank. The
school collected packaged and canned foods during the month of November.

Moffitt chosen to attend Congress of Future Medical Leaders in Washington, D.C.
Senior Mishayla Moffitt was nominated to attend the Congress of Future Medical Leaders in Washington, D.C., which was
held November 14-16.
Mofitt was nominated by Dr. Connie Mariano, Medical Director of the National Academy of Future Physicians and Medical Scientists to represent CHS based on her academic achievement, leadership potential, and determination to serve humanity in
the field of medicine.
During the three-day congress, Moffitt joined students from across the country to hear Nobel Laureates and National Medal
of Science Winners talk about leading medical research, be given advice from Ivy League and top medical school deans on what to
expect in medical school, witness stories told by patients who are living medical miracles, be inspired by fellow teen medical science
prodigies, and learn about cutting-edge advances and the future in medicine and medical technology.
The academy offers free services and programs to students who want to be physicians or go into medical science.
Suffering through an attack of the Hand, Foot, and Mouth Virus
By Kodee Stokes
A virus has taken over the school. It’s called
the hand, foot, and mouth virus.
What is this virus? Take it from someone who
has caught it, it is a virus that puts little red dots on the
back of your throat, on your hands, and your feet. It
hurts your throat and you get a fever for the first day or
two. It hurts to hold onto things, and it hurts when you
walk.
The red bumps on your feet, hands, and at the
back of your throat turn into blisters. Then your hands
and feet itch and ache for a while. The virus can last
from five to seven days. People have missed a full week
of school because of this, and many teens are behind on
homework, tests, and quizzes.
You have to be careful about what you touch
because it is contagious.
The hand, foot, and mouth virus is like the
chicken pox. Most people only get it once, but a few
people may get it again.
The first symptom to this virus is a sore throat.
If you have a sore throat, take a flashligh, use the light
on your phone, or maybe have your parents look for red
dots in the back of your throat. If you see them, stay home for a week.
The virus can spread to the sides of your
tongue and put bumps on your face and/or around your
mouth. On the feet, it can put in air bubbles which can
pop. When they peel off, it hurts.
The hand, foot, and mouth virus is most com-
mon in children since they go around exploring, touching stuff all the time, and putting their hands in their
mouths.
Doctors suggest that you should always stay
hydrated and wash your hands. A shower is always
good.
My suggestion is when your hands and feet
itch, take an allergy pill. Drink a lot of water and take
some Nyquil to help you sleep at night.
When I had it, the pain was terrible. I had to sit
down when I wanted to get some medicine.
If you haven’t caught it, I hope you don’t catch
it.
If you have it, good luck!

CHS KAY Club stays busy on projects during first semester
By Tana Pickle
Kansas Association of Youth (KAY) is
a leadership club for junior high and high school
students. Members of KAY Club help serve our
school, community, nation, and world.
This semester the CHS KAY Club accomplished many projects.
“The club has helped clean the glass
in the gym before a volleyball game, helped the
sixth graders make a craft before Halloween, and
handed out Halloween candy to all of the high
school students,” said KAY Sponsor Jackie Jantz.
The CHS KAY Club also went to Dodge
City on Saturday, November 3, to pack meals for
Numana, which is an international hunger relief
organization. It benefits children and families in
the United States, Kenya, Sierra Leone, Haiti,
Vietnam, El Salvador, Malawi, Honduras, Columbia, South Africa, Rwanda, Philippines, and
Liberia. The CHS group packed meals for the
Dodge City area.
When the club visited Numana in Dodge
City, they packed 540 meals.
Some KAY members also helped gather food for the Gray County Food Bank before
Thanksgiving.
KAY officers attended the KAY Regional Conference in Holcomb on November 12.
“We will also celebrate KAY Citizenship week on December 8-12,” Jantz said.
HELPING HANDS: Cody Woods, Josh Hibbs, and Brandon
Figueroa help pack items for the Adopt-a-Soldier campaign.
Sending Supplies to Soldiers: Students in John Mowry’s
class help KAY Club pack supplies to be mailed to soldiers overseas.
Taylor Carson, Sydney Meis, Mariana Ramirez, and AnnaMaria
Ramirez work to get boxes full and closed for mailing before Thanksgiving.

Football gets new coach, ends season strongly
By Tana Pickle
The Cimarron Bluejays football season can be summed up in three words:
detication, hard work, and belief.
The boys started their season with a new head coach, Randall Rath. Rath
coached the team to several victories to wind up the season on a positive note.
Sophomore player Brandon Rodriquez said, “I liked the camaraderie between
teammates and the relationships we built with coaches and players. I also liked the
work ethic our coaches instilled in us all.”
Players named to All-league were A.J. Cooper (1st team TE), Kaleb Neuschafer (1st team OL and LB), Nick Ast (2nd team QB and DB), Blake Neuschafer (1st
team RB, 2nd team LB), and Jaylen Pickle (2nd team DL).

The Counselor’s Corner
The Principal’s Perspective
When a student reaches high school, certain questions immediately begin to get asked,
such as “Where do you want to go to college?” “What do you want to be when you grow up?”
“Have you looked at programs for after graduation?”
These questions are overwhelming to a new freshman, along with his or her parents.
There is no set time frame or guidelines for how or when to find the answers to these questions.
Below is a checklist that I developed to help parents and students begin the journey toward
post-graduation plans. Whether, a student is planning to go to college, a technical program, the
military or straight to the workforce, he or she must research or investigate their option so that
they can make the best decision possible.

TAKE NOTES!
Note-taking is an essential college and career readiness skill, and like all skills, it
needs to be learned and put into practice. Middle and high school students can’t be expected
to exhibit the level of note-taking skills that adults possess since many students have had
limited experience with taking notes. Teachers at nearly every level will describe note-taking
as a key to learning, but its usefulness beyond higher education should not be overlooked.
Earlier in the semester, teachers devoted some College and Career Readiness
(CCR) time to taking notes and helping students use their planners for organization and recording important information. Learning how and when to write pertinent information down
needs to be practiced, and good habits will develop over time. Teachers are very adept at
cueing students when an important concept or sequence needs to be recorded for future use
and students need to learn how to paraphrase information quickly and accurately. Trying to
copy down lecture information word for word or copying information from the board or a
presentation doesn’t help students learn to formulate notes on their own. Good note-taking
is not the same as transcription which some students mistakenly believe.
Studies have demonstrated that students who wrote down information during a lecture have a slightly better retention rate than those who merely listened to it. When students
review their notes outside of the lesson, they learn more about what was taught (Kobayashi,
2006).
Good study habits can be further developed when students utilize notes both for
review and also in preparing for upcoming assessments. Students are much more likely to
focus on good note-taking when they understand the purpose for taking good notes in the
first place. By revisiting the purpose and analyzing their notes, students will build the skill
of ensuring they have captured the right information.
