JSH held the 1st Annual Trunk or Treat event on October 31st. Each club, organization, and sports team was asked to create a trunk and hand out candy. We had almost 20 trunks involved in the event and handed out hundred and hundreds of pieces of candy to the many, many families that attend. Despite the cold night, everyone enjoyed the event.

On October 18, members of the ACCHS Math Club traveled to Emporia State University to compete in the 50th annual Donald L. Bruyr Mathematics Day.

Placing in the top 50% were Evan Sinclair in the Geometry Individual Contest (8th place out of 50 students!), Brylyn Jolly in the Algebra Individual Contest, and the Geometry Team of Emma Speer, Avery Sutley, and Kaylee Foote.
