Mason County was awarded funding through Climate and Equitable Jobs Act and Just Transition Fund to conduct a broadband feasibility study. The goal is to provide reliable internet access for everyone in Mason County by locating and fixing the broadband gaps within our infrastructure. To do this, we need your help identifying gaps, and you can help by taking the survey. Once you have taken the survey, share it on any social media platform and tag us in it!

Wednesday at New Central, students practiced their tornado drill procedures and assembled to hear Fire Chief Matt Fliege share weather safety tips. Today, our final event was brought by the ThinkFirst - Injury Prevention Program from SIU Medicine. They focused on bicycle and carseat safety. Thank you to the volunteers who took time to help educate our students on their health and safety this week!

New Central kicked off Health and Safety week with our annual Erin's Law presentation on Monday, where students learned about personal safety. Today they browsed educational tables from the Mason County 4-H, U of I Extension office and Mason District Hospital Paramedics. The topics discussed were food preparation, poisonous plants in our area and first aid. Thank You to everyone who volunteered your time and expertise!

This year we will be requiring pre-registration for Havana Prom Portraits to avoid having to hand out QR cards to the kids before they head into Grand March. This way, if parents pre-register they won't have to worry about the kids losing the QR papers on Prom night and you will automatically get a notification when their photos are online. Any students attending prom wanting to get portraits taken and then order online afterwards can use this QR below to pre-register. If students/parents do not pre-register, they will have to turn in a paper order form on prom day when they have their photo taken. I will give paper order forms to Mrs. Buzzell next week for anyone who wants to go that route. Students will be able to pick them up from her at school. We are customizing the prom backdrop to correspond with this years' prom theme! I will try to get some backdrop example photos up in the next couple weeks.
