• Today, March 2nd is the birthday of Dr. Seuss, which kicks off a week long literacy celebration called Read Across America. Everyone is encouraged this week to give yourself some time to read for pleasure because after all in the famous words of Dr. Seuss, "The more that you READ, the more things you will KNOW. The more that you LEARN, the more places you'll GO."

• On Friday, November 17th, the Pleasanton Eagles pole vault dynasty traveled to Floresville to give a few district opponents a sneak peek of what’s to come. Starting the day for the Eagles was Natalie Read, who was making her varsity season debut. Alicia Keys was not at the meet, but this girl was on fire, finishing in 4th place and earning the Lady Eagles some much-needed points. Watching and waiting was Layla Rodriguez, who entered the competition at a ridonkulous 9 feet, 6 inches. Although Layla was battling an ankle injury, this Lone Star pole vaulter showed everyone who is really Elite! She finished in 1st place with a jump of 11 feet and was inches away from setting another school record. It’s easy to compete this well when you have Valedictorian Tanner McDougal by your side, giving you motivation. Last but not least was Pierson Pilgrim, who did not have his best day. However, Pierson’s not-so-good day is better than 99% of pole vaulters’ best days. Pierson finished in 1st place with a jump of 14 feet—just something light. The kid is literally competing against himself, trying to break his own records. It was an excellent all around effort from everyone. Go Eagles! Pride! Pride!

• Do you know that reading is a stress reducer? It can reduce stress up to 68% which is more than listening to music or going for a walk.

• Congratulations to the Lady Eagle softball team for winning the District opener against Floresville last night 4-3. Scarlet Travis hit 5 homerun this season and her 19th career. Each homerun extends the career record for Scarlet. Scarlet also helps out her own cause on the mound with 8 strike outs and several put our on defense.

• Reading helps improve your focus. Regular reading increases attention span and concentration. It also contributes to your academic success. Students who read for pleasure have higher academic achievement. Walt Disney must have known these benefits when he said, "There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate's loot on Treasure Island."
