I interviewed Mrs. Donais to find out the things that Middle School students Abigail Monson would want to know about their Principal. Jack Bove Kylie Quigley Mrs. Donais went to the Hunking Middle School in ADVISOR: Bradford where she played Volleyball, Basketball, Softball, Cross Country, and Track, wrote for the Mrs. Prescott School Newspaper, and was in the Art Club. Mrs. NEW MEMBERS ARE ALWAYS Donais knew she wanted to be a teacher as young WELCOME. as when she was in the First Grade. Her father, LOOK FOR THE also a teacher and Mrs. Donais would “play school” PAPER AND UP- together. DATES ON THE JGW WEBSITE. Mrs. Donais’ favorite holiday is Valentine’s Day because it is the day of “love”, being nice to one another, and showing everyone that you care. She still buys Valentine Day Gifts for her grown children and hand de- livers their gifts to them. Her other favorite things include Color: Aqua, Sport: Running, Ice Cream Flavor: Chocolate, Pizza: Hawaiian, Place to Cool Off: Ocean, TV Show: “A Minute to Win It”, Movie Star: Barbra Streisand, and Favorite Song/Music Group in Middle School: The Mon- keys and the Beatles. Dancing and singing are not her forte, and the last concert she went to was “Meatloaf” with her husband. Mrs. Donais’ Birthday is on May 3rd. She has been married to her hus- band, Mark, for 31 years, and they have three children, Melissa, age 27, and twins, a girl and a boy, Jennifer and Christopher, age 24, along with their family dog, “Jacksey”. Mrs. Donais is very fond of the JG Whittier Middle School. Her favorite thing about the school is the warm and caring staff who were very kind to her when she first came to JGW from Pentucket Lake School. She is very proud of the fact that JGW’s MCAS scores have risen. The biggest honor in Mrs. Donais’ career was being named Principal at JGW. JGW Building Enhancements that Mrs. Donais is currently working on for JGW include: a “Math Walkway” and a Math Lab in the Computer Lab near that Cafeteria. Mrs. Donais ended this interview by emphasiz- ing: “I like the way all the students come into school every day with smiles on their faces. I know the students are always trying so hard and putting their best effort into their work. It makes coming to work each day such a pleasure when I see this happening all around me!!!” STUDENT CONTEST OF THE MONTH By Abby Monson Write a poem!

Winners will be announced in the next edition of the school paper! JGW STUDENT RECOGNIZED BY GOVERNOR Patrick Marlayna Buco, Grade 8, was nominated and chosen to participate in Gov. Deval Patrick’s In- augural activities in January which started with a Community service project in Boston. “Project 351 is about encouraging the next generation of leaders like Marlayna to give back to our communities," stated Governor Deval Patrick. "The goal is to generate 351 ripples of impact as the young people return to their homes and schools, spreading the spirit of service in Haverhill and across the commonwealth." Additionally, Marlayna, deemed an "ambassador" for this initiative, was asked to bring a book to donate to the Haitian Multi-Service Center to help rebuild libraries across the country dev- astated by an earthquake on Jan. 12 last year. Of course, Marlayna took this one step further by bringing the idea of her mother, our own Mrs. Buco, who asked JGW Staff members to do- nate books. Marlayna, who has been active in many school activities and programs during her 4 years at JGW, has participated in community service since Grade 5, frequently providing brown bag service in and around Haverhill for the city's elderly, and participated this year in gathering toys for the Toys for Tots drive. "It was an honor," Marlayna said of being chosen to partici- pate. "It felt pretty special. I'm looking forward to the community service, and just doing things for the people." Trend Or Disaster? By Jamian Figueroa OMG! Everyone has their own style, but seriously keep it on the down low. We don’t need a lot of Lady Gagas roaming around the school. No offense Gaga, we love your style. Any how, kids should be and act and dress like kids!!! So here it is. Boys, get the hint: PICK UP YOUR PANTS! Use a belt if you have to! Girls, please have a respectable fashion: PLEASE WEAR PANTS AND TOPS THAT FIT! I think that they should get help from each other!!! 2 ELECTRONIC GAMES By Jack Bove This week I am writing about Halo Reach. Reach is a prequel to Halo 1 so it will be my first column. For the next few issues I will talk about the other Halo games. In Halo Reach Campaign, you almost know you are going to lose at the end. Your game starts with you arriving on the planet Reach and being briefed by your Commander. Throughout the game, the end gets clearer: you are going to lose the planet to the aliens. For other game modes, fire fight has become very popular. For many people it is a way to rank up. Also, I will give you this advice: go on fire fight, create a custom skull that gives you invinci- bility, and infinite ammo. Turn on all the skulls and set the difficulty to legendary. Play long enough and you will get four (4) achievements. Lastly, I will give you the best load out for multiplayer. The sniper rifle and gravity hammer. Stay tuned for the next edition for more about other games……. STRIKE UP THE Athletics BAND!!

Write one true statement about drugs that you could use to contradict each lie listed above (“contradict” means “to speak against”). Do not use the same “speak against” statement more than once. You will write 9 different “speak against” statements to respond to the 9 different lies listed in lesson 1. Lesson # 2: The aftermath of bad choices Read the song lyrics to Hurt more than once.

  • Q&A: Vancouver Singer Luisa Marshall Is Simply the Best
    Q&A: Vancouver singer Luisa Marshall is simply the best BY FRANCOIS MARCHAND, VANCOUVER SUN NOVEMBER 26, 2015 true Luisa Marshall (as Tina Turner) poses with singer Selena Gomez after a taping of Ellen in October 2015. Photograph by: Picasa, Handout Hail The Queen: A Tribute to Tina Turner Nov. 26, 8 p.m. | Edgewater Casino Stadium Club Tickets: $39.95 plus charges at brownpapertickets.com Wait, is that Tina Turner catching a plane? Did she just run into that washroom over there? You can forgive many for having followed Vancouver singer Luisa Marshall as she hopscotches around the globe, thinking she was Turner herself. Heck, even pop star Selena Gomez fell for it after a taping of Ellen in October where Marshall was introduced as the singer. The crowd fell for it too, jumping to its feet to give Marshall a loud standing ovation. Marshall had been invited to stand in for Tina as a member of Ellen’s “squad” in a skit poking fun at Taylor Swift’s entourage. (Ironically, Marshall rubbed shoulders with Swift when she attended the Golden Globes in 2014.) Marshall, who was never identified by her own name on Ellen, joined a crew that included Gomez, Nick Carter, Bob Harper (of television show The Biggest Loser), members of the original cast of Full House and comedian Carrot Top. A local singer and TV host on Shaw community television — Simply The Best, where she hosts musicians, artists, cooks and other inspirational figures — Marshall has been impersonating the famous singer for more than two decades. She is performing at the Edgewater Casino on Nov.

Listen / Watch here HERE – out now via Sony Music International/Ultra Records/RCA Records. Says Kygo, “I couldn’t be more excited to collaborate with Tina Turner, who is an icon that I grew up listening to. ‘What’s Love Got To Do With It’ is one of my all-time favorite songs so to have a chance to rework it has been a very special moment in my career. I love working around timeless vocals and although it’s challenging to preserve elements of the original track and adding my own touch, I’m extremely happy with how it turned out!” It’s been a big summer for Kygo who back in May released his critically acclaimed third full-length album Golden Hour which features his hit single “Lose Somebody” with OneRepublic as well as “Higher Love” with Whitney Houston, the latter of which has more than 651 million audio and video streams combined and charted at Top 40 radio.
