This weekend Freshmen Student Council President Samuel Wu, Freshman Representatives Nigel Hawkins and Trevor Wasielewski, 8th grade VP Tri Vu and Representative Joel Stauffer, and 7th grade Representative Carson Zayouna, participated in a weekend retreat where they discussed problems facing students today, academic honesty, student mental health, and bullying. Students were mixed with other students from all over Arkansas where they competed in a leadership dance-off and leadership song creation. Nigel’s group took 1st in dance off, Trevor’s group took 3rd in song, and Nigel’s group took 2nd in song. Our Subiaco boys were also complimented on cleanest cabin. Our Trojans continue to lead the way, excellent job guys!

A beautiful ending to All Souls’ Day.

THIS CLASS IS ON FIRE! Today in Ms. Morris's Honors Chemistry class, the students performed a lab experiment in which they captured hydrogen gas in a balloon, and then popped it with fire. First, create the mixture. Capture the gas. Light it up!

Todays grade seven and eight retreat was a great success. The guys were wonderful during the spiritual talks and had a good time in and around the Mulberry River. Several adults at the Oark Cafe commented “Your young men are amazingly well behaved. You must be doing something right at Subiaco.”
Grades seven and eight read chapter 6 of the Rule of Benedict on restraint of speech. Proper use of our power of speech is the focus of today’s retreat. The first 20 minutes of our travel are in silence.
