I have requested from the science teachers that they offer some type of extra credit to their students for their extra effort and helping us to promote this new annual event that I hope to grow bigger and better each year. I hope to work with the administration next year as PTSA Pres. to set up the fair earlier so that the students have time to participate in the larger fairs available in the district/region. Thanks to Callida Martinez, one of our science teachers, for her help in organizing this event.
The awesome participants in the art show by the DLMHS Art Club, included Matthew Beland, Chinyere Umozurike, Cheyanne Jellich, Madison Miller, Ismal Obad and Graciela Ornelas.
Club Sponsor: Gretchen Kohl (she did an awesome job organizing the amazing artwork.)

Talent Show performers:
The Hula Club
Freshman Nicole Cadigan sang Love Story by Taylor Swift
Sophomore Xavia Tanner sang NO by Meghan Trainor
Sophomore Merry D Wilson played Hey Jude on the saxophone and the audience sang along with “nah, nah, nah, nananana, nananana, hey Jude.”
Senior Class President and President of the Garden Club, Lucas Stuart-Chilcote sang the 1972 song Dancing in the Moonlight with Senior Andreas Soto, as his back up dancer.
Chilcote’s performance inspired other students and staff, and even Principal Scott Bergerhouse to join in and dance to the music.
We would like to give a special Thank You to our prestigious Science Fair judges: DLMHS science teacher, Callida Martinez; AUSD Board President Diane Gibson-Gray, Trustees Walter Ruehlig and Fernando Navarro, and Interim Superintendent Stephanie Anello.
