Fall is an exciting time for the students at Eisenhower High School. During this time, the Student Council plans and organizes the homecoming dance and spirit week, as the whole school gets ready for a festive week of being Eisenhower Knights. The dance is annually held on the Saturday night of homecoming weekend, with the football game being held on Friday. This year was no exception.
It is officially October, that means Halloween is right around the corner. Halloween is a huge holiday for children. Most love dressing up and getting free candy, I mean who doesn’t, right? The Squire interviewed Mrs. Richardson, a middle school teacher here at Eisenhower, about her family’s Halloween traditions.
As the school year begins, so does girls fall sports. Every summer the girls volleyball, soccer, and cross country teams start their crash week, which is every athlete’s least favorite week, a week or two before the first day of school. Even though crash week is hard on the athletes, it is very beneficial to the individual and the team as a whole. The Squire sat down with junior volleyball player, Rayna Hultman, junior cross-country runner, Madison Cathcart, and sophomore soccer player, Katie Bunk, to get an inside scoop about their seasons.
