[0:24] Welcome
[0:44] back to school. Nice to see everyone.
[0:48] We called the order, we did the pledge, and now we're going to do the recognitions. So I just want to start off now. It's your given zoole helping with the recognitions. And we have a nice group.
[0:58] of students to honor tonight.
[1:03] Just a little bit over a year ago,
[1:05] I spoke with the high school, not adding new awards
[1:09] at the high school.
[1:10] Some of you children may have already received
[1:12] some of the local ones.
[1:14] So what we were trying to do is
[1:15] where you're going off into college
[1:17] and the college process on the college application,
[1:20] they have an area for honors and awards on the application.
[1:23] They have local awards, you get county awards,
[1:27] you get state awards, you get national awards.
[1:30] So we did these awards at the high school to make sure that kids in the English department,
[1:34] social studies, the ZED, or they all get local awards, those were nice.
[1:39] The colleges see that, oh, they can separate themselves in the college process.
[1:43] But with these new awards that we're doing in Spanish, either in national contests.
[1:49] So in French and Spanish, we started off as a pilot last year to do national contests
[1:56] for these languages.
[1:58] And our kids did fairly well.
[2:01] So we opened it up this year to even more students,
[2:05] and we really blew away exponentially my thought process.
[2:09] How many kids would be awarded with these national awards?
[2:13] And now all your children who receive these awards
[2:15] have put it on their college app and their application
[2:18] and it's really going to separate them in the process,
[2:22] which is so impressive.
[2:23] So, really we thought we would get a handful, when we get to this national contest, we got
[2:30] scores and scores of kids who really did well, gold medalist, silver medalist, bronze
[2:35] medalist.
[2:36] We didn't even get into the honorable mention, because we could end up filling the room.
[2:40] So, we're really happy to see your children out here doing so well, and I'm going to call
[2:45] Mr. Gibbons, who's going to give a few more words on this, and we'll hand out the certificates
[2:50] against none of these kids, even though they've already received gold silver and bronze medals.
[2:56] Thank you.
[2:58] So, I'm probably going to need that.
[3:00] So, I just want to quickly explain what these two different competitions are.
[3:05] So, for our Spanish students, they took the national Spanish exam.
[3:10] That's a exam given by the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese.
[3:15] Our French students took the national French contest,
[3:18] which is given by the American Association of Teachers of the French.
[3:23] We had 133 of our Spanish students take the exam.
[3:28] We had 41 of our French students take the exam.
[3:31] Tonight we're recognizing the best of the best.
[3:33] Students who got the gold medal got in the 95th percentile and above.
[3:39] The silver medal is for me the 85th percentile to the 94th.
[3:43] And then the bronze medal is from the 75th to the 84th.
[3:47] There's a lot of students who are being recognized.
[3:50] It is a surprise for Austin in good way
[3:52] because of how well our students did.
[3:55] We're proud of the students.
[3:56] We're proud of the World Language Department
[3:58] and our wonderful teachers.
[4:00] And just a quick note of mine, students,
[4:02] a lot of your seniors, please make sure you have us
[4:05] on your college application process.
[4:07] It will only help you and congratulations.
[4:10] So for the, we'll start with the Spanish Awards.
[4:13] If you want to come up once I call your name, I'd appreciate it.
[4:16] We have two students get the gold medal,
[4:19] Jaden Camacho and Sophia Cardona.
[4:37] For this silver medal, I'm gonna try and go slow
[4:41] just so I don't overwhelm Dr. Murphy.
[4:43] Yeah, please, you got it.
[4:44] Jacob Vanitas, Stephanie
[4:53] Sedania,
[4:59] Hailey Chang, Evelyn
[5:08] Colton,
[5:14] Cooper Dyckman,
[5:20] Carlis Jerome,
[5:27] Jawan Grasso,
[5:33] and Michelle Hernandez.
[5:42] And then we'll move on to our bronze medalists.
[5:45] We have Alejandro Bagport,
[5:48] Svierna Ciccioli,
[5:53] Patrick Ciccioli,
[5:59] Avery Figaro,
[6:05] Brianna Hayes,
[6:11] Fabia Loni,
[6:16] and Hannibal.
[6:22] And then for our French exam,
[6:25] we have two recipients,
[6:26] they both received a silver medal.
[6:28] We have Donna Gutierrez and
[6:36] Maddie Salad.
[6:43] We also have about 10 or 15 kids who could make it.
[6:49] Yeah, so it's really had a great show.
[6:52] And it's so impressive, the kids are impressive.
[6:54] And I hope you get into your dream school now.
[6:59] Well, we'll get a picture of all the kids first,
[7:03] and then we'll get the board up with the students.
[7:05] So, parents, if you want to get the picture of our,
[7:29] then for the website, we're going to ask all of you if you just scrunched together,
[7:32] we're going to bring the board to the administrators off to get a group photo.
[7:39] What do you think you're going to do?
[7:49] Thank you so much.
[7:50] You want to have a program that's serving the board?
[7:51] Yeah.
[7:52] Sorry.
[7:53] We've got my end and my love is this.
[7:56] We'll try to show it again.
[8:38] So,
[8:45] generally, at this time, we give parents and students about five minutes to take some pictures
[8:52] out of the social media down on the back because we don't want to keep them here aboard
[8:56] me and we want to get everyone home so they can study sound and French before,
[9:07] so next
[9:07] One good job, congratulations.
[9:10] Charlie Holden, one second.
[9:11] Thank you.
[9:29] My pleasure.
[9:30] Yeah.
[9:32] It doesn't.
[9:34] Hey, yeah, it doesn't pay as well.
[9:36] Oh, we do want to introduce our ex-officio student board member, Livia Carbonaro, and
[9:48] I apologize, Livia.
[9:49] I've heard you were in gold tonight, so you wouldn't be able to make it.
[9:53] So we do want to say congratulations.
[9:55] I'm fully incurred, Olivia.
[9:57] Oh, you're not Olivia carbonara.
[9:59] You're not in goal tonight.
[10:01] My name is Erica Mulce.
[10:03] I'm here speaking of a half in the high school.
[10:05] Oh, now I know why I got that email.
[10:08] Oh, I was thinking, you don't know what I was thinking,
[10:12] but I had something else by month.
[10:18] So as we all know, homecoming is a Saturday.
[10:21] Our parade is at one camp.
[10:23] So the homecoming float theme this month, this year,
[10:26] is childhood TV shows.
[10:29] Our seniors are doing Sesame Street,
[10:31] our juniors are doing SpongeBob,
[10:33] our sophomores are doing Ninja Turtles,
[10:35] and our freshmen are doing little sign signs.
[10:39] So for the past two weeks, all of the grades have been getting
[10:41] together to come decorate and create their floats
[10:44] and preparation for the presentation
[10:46] of all the floats at the parade.
[10:49] Last week, our seniors nominated six seniors
[10:52] for our Hoco King of Queen.
[10:54] on our student vote will take place on Friday for the winners and then
[10:58] onto the winners will be crowned during half time.
[11:02] We also had our spirit week this week, for example,
[11:05] today was Adam Sandler Day, which was very fun and funny.
[11:09] Our sports, our girls' soccer is undefeated right now
[11:12] with a six-nothing and our boys' varsity football is one-to-one.
[11:16] And then I know I'm sure you're all very curious about the student ID badges
[11:19] and how all the students feel about it.
[11:22] So, coming into this year, the opinions have been very mixed, sort of concerned about
[11:27] rather if the IT badges are going to cause traffic jams in the hallway having each student
[11:32] individually tap.
[11:34] It actually has been pretty smooth.
[11:37] It was, a lot of people had a lot of complaints about it, but going into the classroom has been
[11:42] very quick and simple.
[11:44] The only issues that we had are students are forgetting to bring their ITs to school every day,
[11:48] So the main office has been running out of student IDs, like the temporary ones.
[11:53] Also, the plastic that pulls the IDs has been breaking a little bit.
[11:57] It's been kind of an issue.
[11:58] But besides that, the students haven't had that many complaints.
[12:00] It's been going pretty good.
[12:02] That's all I have for you tonight.
[12:03] Very good. That's a killer.
[12:05] Thank you very much.
[12:09] That was you emailed me earlier today.
[12:12] And you see how I was answering like you were the parent.
[12:16] So we have so many parents with different last names in their children, and you said,
[12:21] oh, do you know what's happening with this student ex-efficient?
[12:24] Did you get the word tonight?
[12:25] So I was like, yeah, Olivia can't make it.
[12:28] I wish her luck tonight at the soccer game, I wasn't thinking that this was a student email
[12:35] and I thought it was one of the parents letting me know that she wouldn't be able to attend tonight.
[12:40] So, no, that's where I was because I didn't come out from this school email.
[12:45] It came from your private email, so I apologize, and you did a great job tonight opening in and coming in as a relief picture tonight.
[12:55] Go
[13:16] with some pictures, okay.
[13:18] Okay.
[13:20] We're going to take a couple more minutes so everyone get their social media picture.
