Division Highlights
Congratulations, Mr. Mota!
Upper School Social Studies teacher Jose Mota was recognized last week with an Armstrong Teacher Educator Award at Indiana University Bloomington. The Armstrong Teacher Educator Program is intended to increase involvement among teachers, Indiana University School of Education faculty, and pre-service education students. One aspect of the program allows IUB to identify a small, select group of public school teachers each year from across the state of Indiana who will work with faculty and students in our undergraducate teacher education program. This year's awardees, who came from all parts of the state, have been identified by their colleages and administrators as being truly outstanding. We are proud of Mr. Mota for being selected to join this program.

National Honor Society
On Thursday April 27, Evansville Day School inducted the latest additions to the National Honor Society. The National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation's premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students. More than just an honor roll, NHS serves to recognize those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. These characteristics have been associated with membership in the organization since its beginning in 1921. Today, it is estimated that more than one million students participate in NHS activities. NHS chapters are found in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, many U.S. territories, and Canada. Chapter membership not only recognizes students for their accomplishments, but challenges them to develop further through active involvement in school activities and community service. Congratulations to all on their induction!
Current Members
(back row from left): Jacob Bambenek, Kenady Hess, Brittony Rodgers, Jessica Myers, Leila Grossman, Rachel Embry, Connor Hunt, Sam Springer, Chris Basinski, and Trey Waller.

Students in grades K-5 each made different salsas this week in preparation for the Salsa Challenge. They had help from students in grades 6-12 to complete their recipes. They researched the recipes and learned Spanish words for the ingredients. On Friday, the whole school and their families were invited to come try the different salsas and learn to dance the Salsa in the Atrium. It was a lively afternoon of Spanish-speaking culture appreciation.
