Need some information!
Comment:
Although girls flagfootball doesn't get a letter, and
its not really considered a sport, I really think that it would be nice
to at least put SOME information about it on the sports page. I played
last year, and it takes a lot of hard work, but the girls that play
don't get any thing for it. I think it is a shame that our school can't
even put girls flagfootball under spring sports. We worked as hard as
the other sports had to, so why can't Mandarin say anything about the
flagfootball team. It really isn't fair, and it pisses me off! Do
something about it! From concerned flagfootball player.

We can put
virtually any information about activities on the school website, we
just need someone to get the information to us. If you could tell
us who the faculty sponsor for flag football is, we will send one of our
web students to get some info.

baseball tryouts
Comment:
Hi, can you tell me when baseball tryouts are?
Varsity and JV?
Editor's
Response
We checked
the main Sports page where the spring tryouts have been listed, and it
says the baseball tryouts were held on January 16, last week. The
page lists an email address for the baseball coach if you wish to
contact him.

Senior Prom
Comment:
Now I saw on the calendar that Senior Prom is on
Feburary 18. I thought Prom was always in April. What's up with that? Is
this prom for everyone or just juniors and seniors?
Editor's
Response
The calendar
notice for Senior Prom was referring to public service project that the
Student Council and NHS do for the senior citizens at The Coves
Retirement Home. It does not refer to the Junior/Senior Prom.
We changed the listing to "Senior Citizens Prom" to clear up future
confusion. In answer to your second question, tickets to the
Junior/Senior Prom are only sold to current juniors and seniors.
They may, however, take a date who is not a junior or senior if they
wish.

spirits day?Last time I went "SEAN'S COFFEE HOUSE " and saw pics there .

Editor's
Response
We are not
sure if you are referring to the Senior Week photos or the Homecoming
Week photos, but we no longer have Hien on the web team staff so we
discontinued her section. However, in response to your question,
we have placed links to both the above mentioned articles on the
newspaper main page under Recent Articles. Thanks for your
interest in the website.

Seniors 2006
Comment:
Well, we all know Seniors are graduating on May 25.
I'm a senior myself and I haven't heard when Senior Skip Day was and
when our last day was. So I wanted to know when Seniors' last day was.
Editor's
Response
We certainly
can't give you any information on Senior Skip Day, but the school is
currently discussing the date for the Senior's last day. At
present we have heard the last day for seniors is May 12, but this date
has not been confirmed. When we get a confirmation of that date we
will update this posting.

Talent
Comment:
My friends and I have all been wondering the same
question; "Why isn't there a talent show at mandarin?". I know that
theres one for girls in the Ms Mandarin thing.. what about the guys?
What do we have? Is there any way we could propose this plan to someone
in administration... if so who? Thanks, Some talented kids at mandarin
Editor's
Response
There is a
talent show of sorts for the guys at Mandarin High. Although it
wasn't held last year, the Mr. Unbelievable Contest is traditionally
held every year. The contest consists of guys dressing up as girls
and displaying their dubious "talents". You may want to contact
Mrs. Jaxon, the activities director, to see if they are planning the
contest for this year. Good luck.
