00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Hello, and welcome to this edition of Mornings. I'm Carly Buera.

2
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,360
And I'm Dublina Kandu. We have a lot to tell you, so let's get right into it.

3
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,880
The North Penn Marching Nights competed in the first U.S. band's show of the season

4
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,440
at Upper Dublin High School against local high schools. Our Marching Nights captured

5
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:54,080
first place with a score of 82.6. They also received caption awards for Best Overall

6
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,920
Effect, Best Music, Best Visual, Best Percussion, and Best Color Guard. This

7
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:03,720
weekend, they compete at Central Bugs. Good luck Marching Nights.

8
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,280
North Penn's cybersecurity class got a special opportunity this week with an

9
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,160
exclusive tour of the North Penn School District Technology Suite. Students

10
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,800
are currently working on their school security audit project, where they try to

11
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,680
think like a criminal in order to find vulnerabilities in school

12
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:25,040
architecture. Various NP security engineers and architects led the

13
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,120
students through the server room, informing students of the various

14
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,160
backups and fail states the district has in case of an attack. If any sophomores

15
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:36,080
or juniors are interested in activities like this, be sure to put cybersecurity

16
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:37,680
in your class schedule for next year.

17
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,400
High school is still a buzz with restoration and renovation. Here's

18
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:44,680
this month's construction update.

19
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,400
As we move into fall phase one of the North Penn High School renovation

20
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,400
project continues to make strong progress. Let's take a look at the

21
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:59,320
September 2025 milestones. In the netatorium, ceiling and wall painting is

22
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,320
nearly complete. Just one small section by the bleacher remains, which will be

23
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,840
finished once scaffolding comes down next week. The locker room painting has

24
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,320
begun and sound panels in the ceiling are fully installed. Crews also have

25
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,680
started installing ceiling panels in the pole locker rooms. NK pod floor

26
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,760
grinding is underway during the early morning hours to reduce noise

27
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,720
concerns while roofing crews continue hot air welding, flashing, and

28
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,880
installing metal coping along the parapet walls. Plumbing work continues in

29
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,760
wall roughins for gas lines, new eyewash station valves on the third floor of

30
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:35,160
K pod and rough ends for water fountains in the netatorium. Electrical teams

31
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,320
installed new panels in the basement pool equipment room and first floor

32
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,800
storage area while adding outlets and lighting in classrooms and

33
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,680
corridors. A brief shutdown on September 23rd allowed tie ins for the

34
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,240
new generator and switchboard. Mechanical crews installed new ductwork

35
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,280
and hot water pipes and third floor classrooms remove the old K pod air

36
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:59,080
handler and receive rooftop units for the netatorium. Looking ahead, work

37
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:03,520
includes continue painting, tiling, roofing, interior finishes and masonry

38
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,280
restoration. In early October, we will see the installation of the new

39
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:12,000
pull packs and rooftop units by the end of October. Both third floor K pod

40
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,920
and the netatorium will begin to look like it will when they are due

41
00:03:14,920 --> 00:03:18,400
to open after Thanksgiving this fall. Thank you for following along as

42
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,320
North Penn renovation project stays on schedule bringing us closer to a

43
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,800
renewed and revitalized North Penn high school.

44
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,640

I'm Josh Edelman, sending it back to the desk.

67
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,760
Thank you, Josh. Pom poms and jerseys flooded Crawford

68
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,400
Stadium as youth cheerleaders and footballers made their

69
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,200
appearance. The last football game doubled as North

70
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,000
Penn's annual community night. Aspiring athletes from

71
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,640
the local community were able to spend time with our own

72
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,760
football team and cheerleading squad. Our dedicated sports

73
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,120
stars took the time to talk, teach and practice with the

74
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,880
children, inspiring the next generation of athletes.

75
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,920
For this use club spotlight, Logan Golden is here to tell

76
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,240
you about Badminton Club.

77
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:42,880
North Penn's Badminton is back with a thwack and better than

78
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,040
ever. Whether you're a pro in the court or you've never

79
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,520
touched a racket, Badminton welcomes all students and

80
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:52,320
take a whack at the burden. One of the big things about

81
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,960
Badminton Club is that it is inclusive. It doesn't

82
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,840
matter who you are, what skill of you are, come on

83
00:05:57,840 --> 00:06:00,960
down and have some fun. We do hold tournaments for

84
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,760
people who like that competitive aspect. But really

85
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,880
this is more of a place that's supposed to be social, a

86
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,920
soft landing spot after school to hang out with friends,

87
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,200
have good time and exercise. So one of my favorite things

88
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,640
about Badminton Club is that everyone's here, everyone's

89
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,920
involved, anyone can come down. Even if it's for 10, 15

90
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,400
minutes and you have to go somewhere else, we'd love to

91
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,320
have you and we're planning our fall tournament. So keep

92
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,280
staying tuned for dates.

93
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,600
I love Badminton because it gives me a chance to get

94
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,600
outside, touch grass and run around. And I think people

95
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,440
should join Badminton Club because you make like a

96
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,680
lot of new friends and I low key just made like three of

97
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:48,400
them. So if you want to take a swing at Badminton,

98
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,280
the next meeting is Wednesday, October 8th.

99
00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:53,760
Reporting for North Penn Television, I'm Logan

100
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,800
Golden.

101
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,760
We have Nora in the studio with Shreya and Ishrak to talk

102
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,720
to you about homecoming. How are you doing Nora?

103
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,160
I'm doing great. Thanks Carly. Hello North Penn. I'm here

104
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,320
with Shreya and Ishrak and they are here to talk about

105
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,080
the homecoming dance tickets, voting and the long

106
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,840
awaited HoCo Court reveal. So let's get right into it.

107
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,920
When are tickets selling and where should I go if I

108
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,840
want to buy one? Okay so tickets are going to be

109
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,560
sold for $20 each and then they're going to be

110
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,320
sold from 7am to 8am during night's own in Mr.

111
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,960
Fluck's office which is the main lobby. And then the

112
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,600
week of homecoming, the Monday and Tuesday, we're

113
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,320
going to be selling during all school lunches.

114
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,160
Okay and what should somebody do if they want to

115
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,080
bring someone from another school? If you want to

116
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:39,680
bring someone from another school, there's

117
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,920
guest forms that are found in your home office.

118
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,680
You have to have them signed and approved so

119
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,120
you can turn them in when you're buying your

120
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,000
tickets. I heard something about Crown the

121
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,280
Proposal. What is that? So as she is hosting a

122
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,120
new competition this year called Crown the

123
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,240
Proposal, if you have a HoCo proposal that you

124
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,320
want to submit, you can send it into our

125
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,400
Instagram at npsga and they're all due by

126
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,800
October 9th and on October 10th we're going to

127
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,720
be announcing the winners who receive two free

128
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,680
tickets to the HoCo dance. Okay I think we've

129
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,080
all waited long enough so I think it's time

130
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,560
for the awaited homecoming semi-finalist

131
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,040
