📣Cheer Information Meeting 📣 Wednesday, March 19th @ 6 pm in the NMHS Commons.


🎂 Mr. Shounder's culinary students had a special guest the other day. Our very own Mackenna Long, Child Nutrition Director, stepped back into her 'Cake Boss' apron to give a class on decorating techniques. Back in the day, Mackenna was so famous for her cake creations that she was featured on television shows and hired to make cakes for many local celebrities. Students learned tips for the basics of a good crumb coat, the difference between modeling chocolate and fondant, and how to incorporate "mistakes" into your end design. Thank you, Mackenna, for sharing this glimpse into your cake world!

North Mason High School rolled out the "blue" carpet last week, welcoming incoming freshmen at the Future Bulldog Night. School and Career Counselors presented information on high school requirements, understanding the importance of high school in developing healthy and successful adults, and the 8th grade registration timeline. The evening ended with a school tour led by Principal Collins and Assistant Principal Hackett, where they had the opportunity to highlight what it means to be a Bulldog.
Thank you, Mrs. Swaser, for sharing details and photos from this successful event!
