The Arrow Senior Edition 2021 The Arrow Senior Edition 2021 Thanks for the Memories By Kaylee Johnson & Stella Hahn When you go to the same school with the same people for both your junior high and high school years, you’re bound to have some pretty memorable times. Here are some of the best memories that members of the class of 2021 have had throughout their Tecumseh school experience. Payton Buse- It would either be setting a sectional record this season in swim or winning Homecoming King with Amber Sheets as Queen. Gracie Gogel- My best high school memory was the two years I got to go to the FFA National Convention with the other FFA members. COVID sadly took away these last two years of going, but the late night drives and all of the memories we made on those trips were some memories I will never forget. Simon Hahn- Mine would be our team beating Eastern Greene 6-0 this year during the sectional football game. Lydia Howe- It would probably be sophomore year Almost Anything Goes, because that was the year we won. Lane Patterson- My favorite memory was when I was in 7th grade at a school assembly when Mr. Paige rolled out on a “wrecking ball” but he was actually just on a yoga massage ball. Emma Scales- My favorite memory at Tecumseh was being on the swim team and having the opportunity to build good relationships with my teammates and coach. We always had a fun time together. Abby Teddleton- My favorite memory is when we were on the field and someone threw a bucket at me and I tried to stop it with my foot but instead my foot went all the way through the bucket. Jacob Werner- It was always fun going to someone’s house or out to eat in between going to tech school and Tecumseh. Guess the Baby! By Caroline Wilson & Nelly Lemen Try to see if you can figure out which baby is which senior! Answers are at the end of The Arrow.

We are so proud of the young adults you’ve become. Since we have all been in your shoes before, we have some words of wisdom to share! Mr. Loveless: You will spend 30+ years in a career. Find something that doesn't feel like "work". Mr. Oxley: Don't wait for extraordinary opportunities; Seize common occasions and make them great. Senora Tooley: Do not be afraid of failure. We learn from our failures and that's what helps us to succeed. Mrs. Schleter: Dr. Seuss once said: “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You’re on your own and you know what you know. And you are the guy who’ll decide where to go.” I have learned in my life that you can’t do what you think will please others. Don’t be pulled in a direction that isn’t your own path, follow your heart and passions and dreams. You might be surprised where that path may lead! Ms. Rexing: "Whether you intend to or not, you are going to change the world in some way. Make it positive." Determine your own definition of success and work hard to achieve it Always plant corn two inches into the ground but not until the ground temperature reaches 50 degrees.” Mrs. Ashby: Call your mother often. She is going to miss you. Ms. McCleland: Remember that hard work and determination will take you further in this life than choosing the easy path or cheating ever will. Most days it’ll be tough, but the reward is more fruitful when you decide to put in the effort and time. Make the most of each day, for the years pass by too quickly. Congratulations and best of luck Class of 2021. Mrs. Alcorn: Live your life believing that something wonderful is about to happen. If you look for reasons to be grateful, to be happy, to be in awe, you will find them. And on this journey, remember that you are one of those positive things that another seeker is looking to find. Be ready to make a difference. Mr. Harris: Don't be in a rush to become an adult. Enjoy this time to find out what you want to do and who you want to be. But we need you to get good jobs, so we can afford to retire one day. Mrs. Ripple: Don’t underestimate the power of kindness.

I, Lillee Sullivan, will my friend group’s chaotic energy to the Junior class so that the softball team might have more fun. I, Chris Orth, will my bass pro hats to Trevor Curtis so that he might wear them in remembrance. I, Remington Pfeffer, will the entire THS drama stage to Emma Stevens so that she might take over the drama department.

    THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S FIRST ANNUAL REPORT TO CONGRESS PURSUANT TO THE EMMETT TILL UNSOLVED CIVIL RIGHTS CRIME ACTOF 2007 APRIL 7,2009 This report is submitted pursuant to the Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crime Act of 2007, regarding the activities ofthe Department ofJustice (DOJ or the Department) under the Act. This initial report covers activities predating the Act, which was signed into law on October 7,2008, and the six months since its enactment.! 1. THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE'S EFFORTS TO INVESTIGATE AND PROSECUTE UNSOLVED CIVIL RIGHTS ERA HOMICIDES A. Overview and Background The Department of Justice fully supports the goals ofthe Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crime Act of2007. For more than 50 years, the Department of Justice has been instrumental in bringing justice to some ofthe nation's horrific civil rights era crimes. These crimes occurred during a terrible time in our nation's history when some people viewed their fellow Americans as inferior, and as threats, based only on the color of their skin. The Department of Justice believes that racially motivated murders from the civil rights era constitute L some of the greatest blemishes upon our history. As such, the Department stands ready to lend our assistance, expertise, and resources to assist in the investigation and possible prosecution of these matters. Unfortunately, federal jurisdiction over these historic cases is limited. The Ex Post Facto Clause of the Constitution and federal statutory law have limited the Department's ability to prosecute most civil rights era cases at the federal level. For example, two ofthe most important federal statutes that can be used to prosecute racially motivated homicides, 18 U.S.C.
