Students in Mr. Mike Bruening's Honors Anatomy and Physiology class spent time this week dissecting mink in order to identify muscles of the body. The purpose of this activity is to use comparative anatomy to not only see what human muscles would look like, but also to discuss the physiology or function of each muscle.

Health Classes learn the Importance of Proper Hand Washing
Mrs. Breitholle-Quigley's Health classes learned the importance of proper handwashing with their own experiments during her classes. They put five individual slices of bread in plastic zip bags. One was untouched. One was touched by a student with dirty hands. One was touched by a student with freshly washed hands with soap and water. One was touched with hands that used hand sanitizer and the last one was rubbed all over the surfaces of a student's Chromebook.

Press Release DECA: The City of Sharonville Recognizes Princeton Business Students
Students in the Princeton City School District DECA Club are being recognized by the City of Sharonville with a proclamation that November 10, 2020, is DECA Day in the city.
“We want to take this opportunity to applaud their work in finding ways to connect and build our local business community,” Mayor Kevin Hardman states. “Princeton students involved in DECA are leaders throughout the school as members of the student council, National Honor Society, Key Club, athletic teams, orchestra, band, and choir. We felt compelled to recognize these students, and I am grateful that we are able to do so with this proclamation.”
DECA is an association whose mission is to prepare emerging leaders and entrepreneurs in marketing, finance, hospitality, and management. DECA enhances the co-curricular education of members by providing authentic, experiential learning methods to prepare members for college and careers.
“At Princeton, DECA students are empowered through experience to provide effective leadership through goal-setting, consensus building, and project implementation,” explains Tom Burton, superintendent of the district. “Valuing competence, innovation, integrity, and teamwork is key. We know that these qualities enhance our efforts of empowering each student for college, career, and life success.”
Annually, DECA students attend competitions on the local, district, and state levels. Eleven PHS students qualified to attend the DECA state competition last year, with six placing in the top 10 of their event. At competitions, students are asked to solve a real-world problem in the form of role-play.
DECA members put their knowledge into action through rigorous project-based activities that require creative solutions with practical outcomes. Partnerships with businesses at local and broader levels provide DECA members with realistic insight into industry and help promote meaningful, relevant learning.
“Just as it is in our global economy, a spark of competition drives DECA members to excel and improve their performance,” explains Rebecca McCowan, DECA advisor, and business teacher. “The participating students are ambitious, high-achieving leaders equipped to conquer the challenges of their aspirations. Recognizing the benefit of service and responsibility to the community, DECA members continually impact and improve their local and broader communities. DECA members are poised professionals with ethics, integrity, and high standards.”
Princeton DECA students have also participated in the Business and Community Partner Breakfast, which is held quarterly at Princeton High School since it began in 2017. Students help set up tables, greet and sign in guests, and participate in public speaking during the breakfast. This year the students are taking a more active role in planning, marketing, creating content, and running the virtual event.
Senior Janiyah Wright-Willingham has been part of the club since her freshman year. “We have helped with numerous activities in our elementary schools, such as helping them carve pumpkins and worked at carnivals,” she explains. “DECA members are very active in the school. We even managed the Viking Spirit Shop and hosted a free throw contest during halftime of basketball games.”
During the 2017-2018 school year, a business program was brought to Princeton High School (PHS) in partnership with Great Oaks Career Campuses. This also marked the beginning of DECA at PHS. Students enrolled in the business program are members of DECA as well; it is a co-curricular club.
Princeton DECA had 167 members in 2019-2020. Under normal circumstances numbers would have been similar this year; however, due to the current hybrid and remote learning schedule this year, the district currently has 74 members in the award-winning club.

Does your student have a Princeton Chromebook device?
Keeping their Chromebook device clean is more important than ever!
Use a soft, moist disinfectant wipe followed by a soft drying cloth. You can lightly wipe the keyboard to remove dust and germs.
Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners directly on the device.
Also, periodically, check your student's device . If the device is dropped, the screen will break. Your student will be assessed a fee for repairs.
Your student's device is an important component to their educational success. If they have Chromebook issues, contact:

PHS Guide to Remote Learning
Supporting Young Minds of All Kinds.We all know that this upcoming school year is going to be different than any other, and that families have to adjust to big changes, such as how best to support learning from home. One of the Library’s areas of focus in our Strategic Plan is student success. We’re committed to helping young people have the resources and supports they need to succeed in school and prepare for post-secondary education, training, careers, and life. Besides library cards and access to our eResources 24/7, we can also support students with their remote learning by providing WiFi access, computers/laptops, and access to library staff to provide assistance. Here’s some important information:In-personKids learning remotely, and their families, are welcome to visit any of our 41 locations during all open hours, Mon. – Sat., 10am to 6pm.- At the downtown Main Library we have designated a space on the second floor for homework help for middle and high schoolers, which will be available beginning Aug. 24. We can accommodate up to 24 students at a time.
- To reserve a space students should call 513.369.6900.
- Sessions are 2 hours in length and are limited to 1 session per student per day.
- There will be 3 sessions each weekday: Monday – Friday
- 10AM – 12PM
- 1PM – 3PM
- 4PM – 6PM.
- We do still have safety protocols in place, including requiring face coverings, reduced occupancy levels, and limits on the length a customer can stay.
- Right now, we are working to improve our outdoor spaces and meeting rooms at many of our locations so we can support students who need homework help, access to WiFi or devices, or assistance with their own device.
- We intend to use the first few weeks of school to learn what the demand is for student use of our facilities and as capacity allows, and we may try additional strategies like adding student-only hours in the evenings, and adjusting occupancy levels, if the spread of COVID-19 continues to improve in our county.
Online
- Anyone with a library card can use our Homework HelpNow resource, which provides a variety of supports to students, including live homework assistance, study tools, virtual study rooms and even free assistance with filling out the financial aid form for college (FAFSA).
- Check out this brief video to learn more about this great resource.
