Angels from the community and Shared Faith Community provided 35 Guthridge and Parsons Middle School students each with new shoes and a 10 pack of socks to start the school year. The Angel Shoes project is historically conducted annually close to the holidays, to help students who have outgrown, or worn out, shoes they got at the start of school. This year, because of the blessing of added donations from the community, Pastor Jennifer Dawson said they decided to split the project, providing one group of students shoes to start the year, and then they will conduct the project around Christmas for another group of students.

USD 503 is only three days in and Parsons students are already throwing paper airplanes in class. But of course it's Mr. Duroni's physic students who are into studying lift and drag in aerodynamics and documenting their results with the scientific method. Students divided into groups creating multiple paper airplanes, each different in its design of wings, flaps, vertical stabilizers and rudders (if any). Each plane was then put through three test flights.

The theme at Parsons Middle School this year is "Challenge Accepted." To kick things off, Mrs. Nolting and Mr. Krull told students that the Viking Time classes that were the most engaged this week would get to participate in a tug-of-war competition Friday. Four classes made the cut, and Mr. Hutley's was the end all winner of the tug-of-war competition. They are excited to see students accept next week's challenge and see who the winners will be.
