Mrs. Huerter’s class just finished up a novel study on the book "Holes," by Louis Sachar. For the completion of the unit, her class watched the movie to compare to the book. In the story the characters had to live off onions and sploosh, which is 100-year old, spiced peaches. In honor of the food, Sam Miller brought cake pops that looked like onions, and Mrs. Huerter brought onion rings and peach pop. They also created detailed art to commemorate the setting of the story.
A great project and great way to bring something from the book to life!

On Monday the junior high scholar's bowl team ended their season with the OTL meet in Troy, and it was quite the success for Onaga! Both the 7th and 8th grade teams left undefeated with the 1st place medal!
The 8th Grade team was especially exciting to watch as they went into a tie breaker question two times to defeat Doniphan West and Sts. Peter & Paul. Head coach Holly Thomas was not able to get all of the 7th grade scores since the 7th grade and 8th grade teams competed at the same time during the championship round, but the scores she did have are as follows:
8TH GRADE
Onaga 70 vs. Centralia 55
Onaga 60 vs. D-West 50
Onaga 60 vs. SPPS 50
Championship Round 1 - Onaga 80 vs. Wetmore 20
Championship Round 2 - Onaga 60 vs. Centralia 55
7TH GRADE
Onaga 70 vs. Centralia 10
Onaga 80 vs. D-West 30
Onaga 80 vs. SPPS 20
All season long, the 8th grade team was a force to be reckoned with, going undefeated on the year. Consistent top scorers were Monty Meyerkorth, Xavier Berges, and Adalei Conley. The 7th grade team started a little slow, but quickly picked up momentum on their way to the league title. Consistent top scorers for the 7th grade team were Luke Poell, Andi Wegman, and Ava Baxter.
Congratulations to both the 8th and 7th grade teams and to first-year head coach Holly Thomas on great seasons! GO BUFFALOES!!!

Nice job Wyatt, Zach, and Lillie!
