Pirates in all levels of Spanish have been showcasing their artistic skills by creating pinturas en corteza de amate. These pinturas, or paintings, are done in Mexico and show daily life in small communities. The indigenous groups of Mexico have been painting these on the bark, or corteza, of the amate tree for hundreds of years.
Napoleon's Spanish students used donated paper bags to create their own pinturas and show off their artistic abilities! ¡Bien hecho piratas! And gracias por las donaciones (And thanks for the donations!)
Congratulations to the High School May Student of the Month, Maci Straub!
"Maci is extremely hardworking in class and strives to be the best in all she does. She is kind to everyone she interacts with. You can tell she genuinely likes to be here."

Congratulations to NHS students Ethan Hays, Troy Styron, James Perdue, and Cade Rugg for representing NHS so well and participating at Chelsea HS Gamers Guild 4th annual Dungeon’s & Dragon’s tournament. Chelsea's advisor had this to say:
"... This is the second year we have had these boys at our tournament and want to take a moment to recognize them. In addition to being highly skilled players, they are respectful, polite, kind, and have an infectious enthusiasm. They are a credit to Napoleon High School. I know this is a busy time at the end of the school year, but if you have an opportunity please recognize them for the fabulous job they did representing your school."
