So I asked what the students thought about it. ; I went around at lunch and asked various students stu-dents what the Knight as our mascot meant to them. The students feel that with the Knight as their mascot they have more of a say in what's going on, especially now that's there's Knights of the Round Table. They feel like they are more involved in all of the schools activities, and how things work around here than they were before.

For starters, start-ers, we had planners before be-fore and still do. Some of the things listed inside the planner are code of conduct, con-duct, bell times, calendar, rules of the school, and other items like that. There are a couple differences dif-ferences between the Knight's planners and the Jr. Devils. Our "Knight's Quest" used to be called peaceable schools. The Knight's Code of conduct is pretty much the same as the old "we are the Springville Junior High Student Expectations."

The Gifted and Talented Program at SJHS Alyssa Payne SJHS STAFF WRITER Where would you look for students who are leaders, lead-ers, students who have a desire to learn and be challenged, chal-lenged, or students with creativity? These are the qualities that are looked for in students who are in the Gifted and Talented program at Springville Jr. High. Mr. David Hansen and Mr. Shawn Hatfield are in charge of the Gifted and Talented Program. They usually look at IOWA basic ba-sic skills tests, National Norm Reference tests, andor get 90 o'r above on your reading and math tests to determine who will be accepted into the program. pro-gram. Sometimes teacher recommendations are used but this is not the preferred selection method because it is too opinionated. The program starts sometime between the end of September and the middle of October. Mr. MorningEnrichment -time tor makeup Bree Hathaway and Phill Harnden SJHS STAFF WRITERS Morning Enrichment is a class where you make up your tardies, sluffs, and unexcused absents.

Hansen's favorite activities' activi-ties' the Gifted and Talented group has done are when they went to a mine, when they went to the cadaver lab, and when they did the NASA project.
