ARMY NATIONAL GUARD WELCOMES SPECIALIST LABROT Wo

ARMY NATIONAL GUARD WELCOMES SPECIALIST LABROT

Woodshop teacher Mr. LaBrot officially joined the Army National Guard on May 9. At 40 years old, LaBrot had to receive special permission to join. He mentioned that his grandfather was a lieutenant colonel in WWII with the US Army and his father was a sergeant in the Missouri National Guard. Specialist LaBrot is both excited and nervous about training.

“I would say right now I’m still more in the excited phase,” he said. “I’m not too nervous about being yelled at and screamed at, but the people doing that are going to be half my age. I’ll be the old man there,” LaBrot said.

DECISION DAY!

Seniors in the class of 2022 announced where they plan to attend college on April 29 for Senior Decision Day. College counselor Ms. Gerringer and the counseling department set up a station for students to declare their decisions on their post high school path. Paige Bostic made the most of her Decision Day by bonding with those who are going to the same college as her. “I got to write down my university and take a picture with my friend Erick, and our mini foam fingers. We’re both going to the same college in the fall, @slu_official," Bostic said.

The team shut out the St. Dominic Crusaders 2-0 on Tuesday, April 26.
“A win against any quality team is a great feeling. Ending Dominic’s winning streak felt a little extra special because a lot of people think they are just too good to beat,” Coach Kleekamp said. “We discussed the importance of stepping onto the field knowing we are just as good as them. If we play our best and compete, then we can win.”
