Congratulations to Kings High School Visual Art Students Jerod Allen, Lauren Lalli, and Sam Huber on recently earning national recognition in the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. This year The Scholastic Art & Writing Awards received more than 230,000 submissions. Only 1-percent received National recogni- tion! National Medalists are celebrated at world-famous Carne- gie Hall in New York City on May 31. Sam Huber, a KHS junior, was one of three students selected to receive the $1,000 Creativity & Citizenship Scholarship. This award is given to young artists and writers who take on a topical and important theme chosen by the Alliance and their partners at the National Constitution Center. This year students were asked to creatively express their views on the importance of Voting. Sam said the money will go towards college. After graduation next year he plans to study graphic design at an art school. Jerod, a senior, was surprised to find out he was a winner. He graduates this May and plans to attend the University of Cincinnati to study film in the CCM program this fall. Jerod and Sam are both excited to visit New York for the ceremony. For Lauren, also a senior, this experience has been remarkable. This is the second year in a row she has won a Scholastic Art Award, something she never expected to happen. After graduation she plans to study social work. She is still deciding on colleges. Congratulations everyone!

Congratulations to two Kings Junior High eCYBERMISSION teams on being chosen as
state finalists for their projects!
eCYBERMISSION is a web-based Science, Technol-ogy, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) compe-tition where teams can compete for State, Region-
al and National Awards while working to solve problems in their community.
Team Black Eye (Ben Smith, Cole Swartz, and Zane Middleton) discovered that tooth decay is a prob-lem and tested to see if toothpaste protects teeth
from coke erosion.
Team Polaris123 (Bella Ehret, Tiffany Steele, and Michael Messer) wants the community to become more energy independent and tested wattage of
batteries versus solar cell. These teams researched community/local issues, came up with a problem, designed an experiment, tested it, collected data, analyzed the data, and wrote their conclusions.
These were submitted online and have been cho-sen as state finalists. We are keeping our fingers crossed that one or both of these teams will win. First place is $1,000 bond each and 2nd place is
$500 bond each.

Dear Parent, The score of the big game. The name of the girl in their English class. The clothes and hairstyles. Those are just a few of the details your student will want to remember about this school year. Help your student keep those memories sharp by buying a 2012-13 Kings High School Yearbook. For only $75 your student will have a book that will be enjoyed now, and 20, 30 or even 50 years from now. You also can make the yearbook extra special by purchasing namestamping and a protective plastic cover. It’s easy to order! Buy online at www.yearbookforever.com and enter the school name. Parents of seniors will also have the opportunity to buy a personal ad in the book. Imag-ine your son or daughter’s surprise when they open the yearbook and see their own baby photo and special message from you. Or honor the seniors of that special team, sport, or activity with a photo and message they will never forget. The last day to buy a Yearbook is April 26. Order now, so your student won’t miss out when the yearbook is distributed in the Fall of 2013. Seniors who have graduated have their books mailed home to the official address on record at Kings. As an adult, you know how important high school memories become. Don’t let your stu-dent’s memories fade; make sure they get a yearbook now! Sincerely, Kelly Shields Yearbook Adviser Kings High School
