Wilson Spotlight Issue 354 October 8, 2012 Wilson Spotlight Issue 354 October 8, 2012 http://www.pps.k12.or.us/schools/wilson/ FOOTBALL TEAM GOES PINK ON OCTOBER 11 To help shine a light on Cancer Awareness month, the Wilson football teams will be sporting pink for our last regular-season home game, Thursday, Oct 11th. All of our three teams will have pink socks and pink wrap... and look for the pink ribbon painted on the field. “We just want to show support for a great cause,” adds Coach Ken Duilio. “Cancer Awareness month hopefully brings more attention to a disease that affects all of us. We will wear pink with pride!” WILSON STUDENTS KEEP BLOCK PRINTING ART ALIVE THANKS TO CHARLES F SURENDORF II ART FOUNDATION Marie Pearson, Wilson Art Teacher is thrilled to announce that Cindy Surendorf is doing a two-week block printing workshop in the Draw-Paint-Print classes at Wilson. Cindy is the Executive Director of the Charles F Surendorf II Art Foundation. Her father is Charles Surendorf, a WPA artist during the Great Depression and was among the top block print artists of the 20th century. Cindy uses her father's work to discuss societal issues (such as racism, poverty, and heath) that were present during the Great Depression and how many of these problems are still present today. Students choose a contemporary problem and create a block print that presents a solution. Her foundation provides all of the supplies for the workshop. There is no cost to the school. The workshop is scheduled for October 1 through October15 for the four sections of Draw-Paint-Print. Here is a link to the Charles F Surendorf II Art Foundation website: http://www.surendorf2artfoundation.org/. Thank you Ms. Surendorf! WILSON GRAD HAILED AS ONE OF WORLDʼS BEST According to Rob Cullivan of the Portland Tribune, Joe Powers ʼ96, harmonica player is hailed as one of world's best. Joe specializes in blending jazz, tango, blues, and chamber music. He received formal training at the University of Oregonʼs School of Music. In high school Joe sang in the Wilson choir and "Ensemble” and got a leading role in his first play in Ten Little Indians by Agatha Christie and performed in Rumors by Neil Simon. Joe also started a pop/rock cover band with friends called Red Point. They played at the 1995 Wilson Prom and other school functions and won a Rose Festival talent contest. He formed another band called Seizure Salad and they won the first annual Portland high-school Battle of the Bands at PCC.

The City of Portlandʼs Future Connect Challenge is raising the stakes with a prize for school that has the highest participation rate. Beginning October 5, Portland high school students will have a chance to get a head start on planning for college – and show off their school spirit at the same time. By participating in the Future Connect Challenge, students help their school win. The school with the highest participation rate will win an after school Movie and Pizza Party! All students who participated in the Challenge will watch a movie and be treated to pizza, courtesy of Dominos Pizza on NE Glisan and 69th Ave. Teachers and staff can help by encouraging students to complete each step, announcing the Challenge in assemblies and in class, or offering incentives like extra credit–whatever you know works to get your students motivated! The high school with the highest Future Connect Challenge participation rate will be awarded a pizza/movie party provided by the City of Portlandʼs Future Connect Initiative. Contest Rules and Details: (a) The winning school will be decided by averaging the participation rate from each week. (b) The participation rate is determined by dividing the amount of students who participate in each weekʼs steps by the total number of students who are enrolled into the school. (c) The average will be calculated by adding each weekly participation rate and dividing the total by the number of weeks the competition occurred. (d) Schools will have until winter break to redeem their party.

  • Head Coach Mark Williams BOOMER SOONER Norman and Oklahoma City
    A TRADITION AND HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE The University of Oklahoma men’s gymnastics program is based on a foundation and tradition of excellence. That tradition includes eight NCAA team championships, 19 conference championships, seven Nissen-Emery award winners and 231 All Americans. We are led by student-athletes willing to persevere in times of adversity and work hard every day with an unbending will to prepare and succeed. Whether it’s striving for success in the classroom or on the competition floor, we always capitalize on the opportunities in front of us. Through dedication to the schedule and plan, commitment to a refinement of the details and putting action to that preparation, excellent results have followed. From our longtime partnership with Cleveland Elementary School to joining five Sooners at the Olympics in London this summer, it is a privilege and an honor to work with these student-athletes. At Oklahoma, we provide the avenues to reach the highest level. Our team accomplishments in the past 13 years are unprecedented. We take pride in helping student-athletes live their dreams beyond OU, to compete at World Championships, Olympic Games or other international events. Inspiring student-athletes to compete at the highest levels in all that they do – that’s what we aspire to achieve at Oklahoma.
