Cameron Larsen, 7th Grader at Plainwell Middle School, was recently accepted by Team Impact. Team Impact is a program that "matches children facing serious illness and disability with college sports teams, creating a long-term, life-changing experience for everyone involved". Their mission is "to guide children and teams alike in a mutually beneficial relationship of belonging, empowerment, and resilience". At a young age, Cam was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes; however, this has not hindered his passion for athletics. Through Team Impact, he has been recruited by the Michigan State University Men's Golf Team to work with the coach and team twice a month. During his time with the program, Cam will have the opportunity to learn and further grow his passion for college athletics. It is Cam’s goal to play college sports one day and this opportunity will only grow his interest, while shining a light on youth living with T1D. From all of us at PCS - congratulations Cam!

This afternoon, the students at Cooper Elementary celebrated Thanksgiving in a special way. Thanks to a great idea from Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Laning, the students had their first Pie Day at Cooper. During the event, Mrs. Keorkunian (principal) read "One is a Feast For Mouse, A Thanksgiving Tale" over the intercom while all of the students in Preschool-5th Grade were seated at a makeshift table lining their main hallway. After the story was read, students and staff enjoyed pumpkin pie together. It was so much fun that Cooper plans to make this an annual tradition.
Students in Ms. Francomb’s Young Fives class at Starr Elementary have been learning about what the word "thankful" means. Yesterday they made "Thankful Turkeys". Each feather has a picture of something they are thankful or happy for at school or home!
As a reminder, there is no school from Wednesday, November 23-Friday, November 25 for Thanksgiving Break. We wish our students, staff, families and community a wonderful Thanksgiving!
