Newspaper Scavenger Hunt

1. Over the summer, the school made some changes to its physical appearance. Downstairs, each hall in the main building got new grey tables with red benches and plaques on top dedicated to the donors. Many of the school halls also got digital clocks as opposed to the traditional ones. These new sleek clocks, brightly display the hour making it faster to tell time when you're passing by. The left wall of the cafeteria got decorated with a painting in the Bowie colors.

2. Jyoti Luu says her first few days have been great! "All of my classes and teachers are awesome!" She did find one issue with her schedule though, "They put me in computer science but I didn't request it." Jyoti is gonna spend time with her counselor to fix the problem and be placed in the classes she actually requested. Lauren Noe also had a problem with her schedule, the counselors gave her an off period that she didn't ask for! "An off period is nice but I want to challenge myself." Being in the top 10, she wants to keep it up and make the best grades she can "I'm worried about colleges looking at my schedule and thinking I slacked off!" Lauren plans on being a lawyer so she wants to make sure her transcripts are good. Yasmine Ben-Brahim says her first few days have been pretty good. "Not having basketball in the mornings is such a relief!" She quit basketball after 6 years because she doesn't plan on going big with it. "Some of my classes seem hard but I think I'll be able to handle it." She's taking a UT onramps course and pre-AP pre-calculus so she has quite a lot on her plate!

3. Bowie High School has created many new spaces and classes this year including new theatre classes. These class provide a larger range of theatrics for students to study. There are also more levels to be able to have ranges of experience and skill. One of the shows this year is going to be "Tarzan" and the theatre students seem to be very excited about it.
   The main office in Bowie has been rearranged. The counselors wing  has been drastically changed. Instead of the offices being at the end of the long, narrow hall, most of the counselors offices are at the entrance. This is making accessibility to the counselors easier for students this year.

4. Football is one of the sports thats that has already begun this year. The first official game is Friday, August 28. The whole school is excited about the season, starting with the players, the cheerleaders, the silver stars, and the marching band, not to mention the fans! Bowie football looks like its up to a great start according to the scrimmages from the summer. This Friday will set the tone for this season.
