excited to see what this season will bring working with the CGB Tracksters and Coach
Farwell!
Construction Builds New Garage in Graceville
By: Collin Kellen
Mr. Daniel’s Construction class has been slaving away seventh hour, building a
28ft x 40ft, two-stall garage for Steve Jipson. It will be insulated and sheet-rocked on the
inside when they are finished. The students have built the garage from the ground up
and are at about the halfway point with all the framework done. They are now getting
ready to install the doors. After that, they will put on house wrap and work on the inside, installing wires and insulation (maybe they can finally be warm out there for once).
They hope to have the garage finished before
summer with some hard work, dedication, and even Saturday work! Mr. Daniels is supervising students as they
learn more about construction and what it takes to build
something out of nothing.
Skid Marks, Personals and Proposals!
By: Kendra Gilsdorf
One Acts are on March 15 at 2 p.m. with two comedies: Skid Marks: A Play About Driving and
Personals and Proposals (an all senior show), including Rachael, Mikki, Alyssa, Shandy, Gina, Jamie, Bobby, Paul, Matt and Tanner. Skid Marks: A Play About Driving
includes Jordan, Morgan, Jada, Tori, Julianne, Jessaline, Erick, Rachael, Paul and
Matt. This year, Mrs. Ragan is even performing along with them, as well as directing!
Personals and Proposals is a play about proposals and how they don’t always
work out. It includes seven hilarious scenes about dating and marriage proposals. Skid
Marks is a comedy about different driving situations most of us can identify with: road
rage, irritated parents and so on. All the cast members hope you can come out and
support the show and enjoy some delicious desserts provided by the teachers.

The 2015 girls basketball season has officially
come to an end. The girls played their last game
against Hancock on Monday. They put up a tough
fight, but couldn't quite keep up with Hancock’s aggressive defense and quick offense. Senior, Rachael
Kellen says “I will miss it a lot, and good luck to next
year’s team!”
Softball practice will start Tuesday for all of the
pitchers and catchers, so if you have any interest in
either of those positions, please show up. There is a
lot to learn! Practice for all softball players will start
March 16 in the gym.
Track practice starts on
Monday for both boys and girls.
As Mr. Farwell would say, “Start
building your base!” Good luck
to both the track and softball
teams in their upcoming seasons!

Did you know the lack of self-esteem is a
big problem? About 80% of first graders enter
school with a high self-esteem
rate, but by the time they are at
the fifth grade level, that drops
down to about 20%. Amazingly,
when they finish high school, the
number of children having positive self-esteem has dropped to a depressing 5%!
Mr. Haggerty will
be conducting a three-day
unit on self-esteem with
grades seven through ten
coming up shortly. He is
looking forward to making
a big difference during his short time here by raising the self-esteem levels at CGB.
Get a baby picture, parent letter, and a digital & printed copy of your senior picture to
the Yearbook Class immediately, please!
Also, the Yearbook staff needs your
“Remember When” photos of group birthday
parties, teams and any other fun pictures
from the past along with more current
“Look at Us Now” photos!
Finally, seniors will meet with Jostens
tomorrow to discuss graduation orders.
