Timberwolf :Tales: Small fire empties school By MELISSA SPEIGLE Shelton Middle School This week is midwinter break for all Shelton Middle School stu- dents, as well as for everyone else in the school district. Last week, everyone at SMS was kept very busy. Among the activities were Tuesday's Spirit Week Committee meeting, Thurs- day's Associated Student Body and Dance Committee meeting, the Natural Helpers' retreat and several placement tests for eighth-graders. On Friday, which was a half day, a minor fire broke out in the cafeteria's kitchen. The alarm was sounded and the entire school poured out the exits as the fire trucks arrived to keep things under control. STUDENTS SPENT about 15 minutes outside while the fire- men extinguished any remains of the fire. Nothing was damaged, and most students thought that in spite of the cold weather, it was an overall exciting and new experience. The fire was due to grease from the eighth-grade Team Touch of Class's Valentine's Day breakfast, which was the team's way of cele- brating the upcoming holiday. Pancakes, balloons and dressed- up students had filled the SMS Commons during the earlier part of the day, and flowers, cards and more balloons were presented to the students by the teachers and from their parents, who had been sending them in over the previous several days. Another event took place in the Commons on Friday. Team Taho- ma's All-Star Ice Cream Feed was a reward to the Tahoma team members who have remained completely infraction-free for the entire school year. Several kinds of ice cream, syrups, whipped cream and lots of other toppings lined the serving tables and the students were able to eat until the last 10 or so minutes of school. EVERY YEAR, Skookum Ro- tary Club sponsors the Mason County Science and Engineering Fair, an event for students in grades K-8. This year's fair takes place in March, but preparation for projects should start this month. Application forms are required to be turned in by February 24, while the actual science fair will be held from 9 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. on Saturday, March 20. To re- ceive the forms, students can talk to their science teachers or con- tact the SMS office for additional information. R00UNDERS [1. . [] N VIDEO 2104 Olympic Hwy.
