Accept the Challenge<br />
Students at <strong>Gunter</strong><br />
Middle School sign<br />
the “I Accept<br />
Rachel’s Challenge”<br />
banner following a<br />
presentation encouraging<br />
everyone to:<br />
Look for the best<br />
in others.<br />
Set goals and<br />
keep a journal.<br />
Choose positive<br />
influences.<br />
Use kind words.<br />
Start a chain<br />
reaction.<br />
Rachel Scott was the first person killed at Columbine High School on April<br />
20, 1999. Her acts of kindness and compassion coupled with the contents of<br />
her six diaries have become the foundation for one of the most life-changing<br />
school programs in America, Rachel’s Challenge.<br />
Ceallaigh and Stephanie<br />
Cody<br />
“After watching Rachel's Challenge,<br />
it inspires me to want to go around and<br />
share this story. It amazes me how she<br />
knew and had that feeling that it would<br />
Tyler<br />
happen.” Freshman Tyler Brewer<br />
“She was a great person that makes<br />
you want to keep the chain reaction going. Now every<br />
day I am going to write my goals down and<br />
keep a Journal of my life.”<br />
“It was an eye opening experience that shed light on<br />
how everyone should live their lives." Junior Ceallaigh<br />
Montgomery<br />
"I thought signing the Rachel's<br />
Challenge banner was the best part of the<br />
program and I hope all the students here get<br />
motivated to act on it!" Junior Stephanie<br />
Garcia<br />
"It's sad that someone had to die to see the<br />
potential for change." Sophomore Cody Johns<br />
“I was deeply moved by Rachel's<br />
Challenge. <strong>The</strong> presentation changed my<br />
outlook on life and it was awesome. <strong>The</strong><br />
story of the shootings is a tragic one, but<br />
Rachel's parents tried to make the best<br />
of it by creating Rachel's Challenge.”<br />

On Monday, January 24, Rachel‟s Challenge came to <strong>Gunter</strong><br />
<strong>ISD</strong>. For those of you who might not be familiar with this program,<br />
it is a program that features a guest speaker who comes<br />
into the school and basically kicks off a program to emphasize<br />
the importance of kindness and compassion among students in a<br />
school. <strong>The</strong> program addresses several issues ranging from<br />
cliques (exclusion) to prejudices to bullying. It is a very comprehensive<br />
program that is meant to use commitments from<br />
students, staff, parents, and community members to impact the<br />
climate of school campuses in a positive way.<br />
<strong>The</strong> whole concept of the initiative is based upon the story of<br />
Rachel Scott. Rachel was the first of thirteen victims who lost<br />
their lives in the Columbine High School tragedy in the spring of<br />
1999. Rachel Scott was an admirer of Ann Frank who was a<br />
victim of the Holocaust under Adolf Hitler‟s Nazi regime. Like<br />
Ann Frank, Rachel kept a diary in which she expressed many of<br />
her feelings and established the basis for her code of ethics.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re were stunning similarities between Rachel and Ann. Both<br />
had basically the same passion for kindness and compassion and<br />
knew the impact that those simple attributes could have on the<br />
world. Ironically, but not coincidentally, the two students that<br />
committed the murder/suicide at Columbine were admirers of<br />
Hitler and chose his birthday (April 20) to execute their plan.<br />
After her death, many things about Rachel‟s life were brought<br />
to light. She was an extraordinary young person who seemed to<br />
have a premonition of dying at a young age. She also had developed<br />
her own set of core beliefs or “code of ethics” that she was<br />
passionate about. She had a theory that people could commit<br />
simple acts of kindness and that it could start a “chain reaction<br />
of kindness” that could change the world. Students and staff are<br />
led through a very powerful and meaningful presentation in<br />
which they learn about a handful of simple, yet important, goals.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se goals include:<br />
Look for the best in others: Eliminate prejudices of all<br />
kinds<br />
Dare to dream: Put your goals in writing; keep a journal.<br />
Don‟t let others determine your dreams.<br />
Choose positive influences: Input determines output.<br />

Students, community accept Rachel’s Challenge<br />
By GHS Principal Kelly Teems<br />
Kind words: Practice simple acts<br />
of kindness each day. You‟ll be<br />
surprised at what a huge impact that<br />
can have.<br />
Start a chain reaction: Random<br />
acts of kindness by one person, then<br />
another, then another, etc., can start<br />
a chain reaction that could change<br />
the world.<br />
<strong>The</strong> presenter facilitated to two groups<br />
of students and staff. <strong>The</strong> first group included<br />
all students in grades 7 - 9 and the second group included<br />
all 10 th – 12 th Mr. Teems<br />
graders. <strong>The</strong> presenter, Cody Hodges, is a former<br />
quarterback at Texas Tech and had heard Rachel‟s father speak<br />
on this topic when he was in college. He told how it changed his<br />
life and how he used these principles to overcome adversity and<br />
to keep him focused on what his dreams and goals were. He<br />
pointed out many problems that students face in schools today<br />
and used the five goals to show how these problems could be<br />
eliminated if students made the commitment to practice these<br />
initiatives.<br />
Finally, he asked students to “Accept Rachel‟s Challenge” by<br />
making those commitments. Students accepted the challenge by<br />
signing a banner which states “I Accept Rachel‟s Challenge.”<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is a banner for both the Middle School campus and the<br />
High School campus.<br />
Later that afternoon, Mr. Hodges conducted a training session<br />
for a representative group of students and staff. He offered ways<br />
to get students and staff involved and to keep the initiative going<br />
so that the enthusiasm and emotion that the day‟s events would<br />
not fade away. Finally, there was one last presentation for the<br />
parents and community that evening. Students were encouraged<br />
to go home and bring their parents back for that presentation.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re were many parents and community members there. Many<br />
of these participants also accepted the challenge and signed the<br />
banner as well.<br />
I encourage anyone who doesn‟t know about Rachel‟s<br />
Challenge to visit www.rachelschallenge.org and find out more<br />
about it. Help us encourage your students to make the commitment<br />
to help start a chain reaction of kindness.<br />
Presenter Cody Hodges<br />
Before joining the team at Rachel's Challenge, Cody played professional football.<br />
Cody loves sharing Rachel's message and being a part of starting a chain<br />
reaction across America! He graduated from Texas Tech University where he was<br />
the starting quarterback. In 2005, he led the nation in passing and had the fourth<br />
best single-game performance in NCAA Division I-A history. Cody spent part of<br />
the 2006 season with the Tennessee Titans. He delivers Rachel's story with compassion<br />
and intensity to encourage students to achieve their highest potential.<br />

GIFT drive begins<br />
It seems it was just a couple of days ago and everyone was getting ready for the 2010-2011 school year. It is hard to believe it is already<br />
February 2011, and before we know it May will be here.<br />
So before too much more time gets away, GIFT„s (<strong>Gunter</strong> <strong>ISD</strong> Foundation Trust) Annual Drive has begun. <strong>The</strong> education foundation<br />
depends on your tax-deductible donation to help provide scholarships and campus grants. Watch your mailbox for a request for your help.<br />
If you don‟t get a request, please don‟t let that hold you back from making a dream come true. You can drop off your donation at the<br />
administration building any day or time. If we are not there, we have a mail slot next to the front doors and you can drop your donation in<br />
there. In order for your donation to go toward the scholarships and grants this year, we must receive your donation by March 14, 2011.<br />
For those of you that have already responded to our request we want to say “Thank You,” we couldn‟t do it without you. Many of you<br />
have been faithful to support us since the education foundation began.<br />

GIFT Scholarship Applications<br />
Seniors at GHS were given an application for the GIFT Scholarships that will be awarded this April.<br />
<strong>The</strong> applications are due to Mrs. Hogan by February 18, 2011. Please encourage your student to fill out<br />
this application. If for some reason they need another copy of the application, they can go to<br />
www.gunterisd.org/gift and print off another copy.<br />
It is very important that they follow the instructions on the application. <strong>The</strong> application requires three references so encourage your<br />
student to get the reference requests out as soon as possible because the references are also due to Mrs. Hogan by February 18, 2011.<br />
If you have any questions regarding the application, the education foundation, or the awards reception, please give Connie Williams a call<br />

<strong>Gunter</strong> Safe School Survey: We need your help!<br />
<strong>The</strong> state and national emphasis on school improvement<br />
has significantly increased the importance of<br />
needs assessment and program evaluation in public<br />
education. By using objective data to make decisions,<br />
schools can more accurately determine the localized<br />
needs of a campus and integrate those needs into district<br />
planning.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Safe Schools Survey is an online database system<br />
that will collect information to assess needs as required<br />
by the Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities<br />
Act (Title IV) and the Texas Education Agency.<br />
<strong>The</strong> survey was originally designed by TEA and used by<br />
all districts in paper form. Region 18 ESC developed it<br />
as an online survey.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Safe Schools Survey provides:<br />
a comprehensive needs assessment instrument<br />
and data collection method<br />
a tool for effective program planning<br />
a benchmark for changes over time<br />
<strong>The</strong> Safe Schools Survey is designed to allow a<br />
school district to have a more complete picture of school<br />
safety, targeting serious issues such as:<br />
Vandalism<br />
Gangs<br />
Tobacco<br />
Drug use<br />
Drug sales<br />
Weapons<br />
Racial conflict<br />
Sexual assault<br />
Bullying<br />
<strong>Gunter</strong> Middle School grades 6 & 8 and <strong>Gunter</strong> High<br />
School will be administering the survey during the weeks<br />
of February 7-25. We need the help of parents, guardians,<br />
teachers, and administrators. During the weeks of<br />
February 7-25, please log on to the website:<br />
https://sdfs.esc18.net/. Choose the survey that<br />
describes your role: parent, teacher, or administrator.<br />
Type in the code:<br />
Middle School: 091-917-041<br />
High School: 091-017-001.<br />
Complete the survey and submit.<br />
<strong>Gunter</strong> <strong>ISD</strong> then receives a report from the Education<br />
Service Center based on the results of the Safe School<br />
Survey. <strong>The</strong> results will assist the administrators and<br />
board in making decisions concerning student safety.<br />
If you have any questions, please contact Dara Arrington<br />
at 903-433-1542. Your help and participation will be<br />
greatly appreciated.<br />

High School<br />
Beta Club<br />
Ten members of <strong>Gunter</strong> High School's Beta Club traveled to Dallas in January to attend the 2011 State Convention.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se Beta members were privy to the messages of several speakers from across the country who consistently<br />
encouraged them to reach for their goals and be true to themselves.<br />
Additionally, several members participated in academic competitions. Reagan Reed represented GHS in the Creative<br />
Writing competition, Monica Hall in Science, Braden Bardach in Spelling, Jamie Boelens in English, Matthew McMullan<br />
in Mathematics, and Pamela Figueroa in Spanish. Matthew and Pamela each earned third place in their respective<br />
competitions, earning them a bid to the academic competitions at the National Beta Convention in Nashville, Tennessee<br />
this June. <strong>The</strong>y are eager to represent our school. If you are interested in sponsoring these students in part or in whole,<br />
please contact Rebecca Egger at regger@gunterisd.org .<br />
Also attending were CJ Ateek, Anthony Franze, Lucas Hampton, and Cody Johns. GHS is proud of all of its Beta<br />
students! A huge thanks goes to Junior Thornhill and his wife Renee, as well as Jenifer Johnson, without whom this trip<br />
would not have been possible. Thank you also to our administration, who made easy the process to get to Convention.<br />
Student Council<br />
Student Council is taking a "field trip" to DFW Airport on February 9th to participate in the "Welcome Home a Hero"<br />
event. This is actually something that happens EVERY day. DFW said that anywhere from 150 to 275 soldiers come<br />
through DFW daily either heading out on a tour or coming home from a tour. We would love to have you involved. If you<br />
would like your classes or families to write thank you notes, make banners or participate in some other way, we would<br />
love to take those things with us to the airport.<br />
One suggestion from the website is to have packets of gum. Another great suggestion is bottles of water with flavor<br />
packets attached. If there are 200 soldiers there I promise we won't have too much. If you would like to get involved by<br />
donating any of these items, please send them to Lindsey Bowen at <strong>Gunter</strong> High School prior to February 9.<br />
Thanks in advance for your participation in our attempt to honor the service men and women of our great nation!<br />

Core Essential for February<br />
For the month of February our Core Essential character trait is KINDESS.<br />
Students will participate in lessons to encourage kindness.<br />
KINDNESS: Showing others they are valuable<br />
by how you treat them<br />
If something is valuable like a treasure chest – you spend all your attention<br />
making sure it is ok, safe, feels loved and is taken care of. Kindness is<br />
kind of that way.<br />
<strong>The</strong> definition of our value this month is showing others they are valuable<br />
by how you treat them. It’s just like comparing the people around you to<br />
treasure chests. When you are KIND and see them as valuable like a<br />
treasure chest, you remember that you need to treat them with special care<br />
– like the precious and special people they are! Look around this week for<br />
people you can show KINDNESS to. Treat them like a treasure.<br />

Swimming makes a splash at GHS<br />
Competitive swimming is now offered at GHS. Kerra Clement, Alex Smith and<br />
Madeline Rowe swam in the district swim meet at Austin College on January 29.<br />
Madeline has been swimming year round for the past 4 - 5 yrs. She travels to<br />
Frisco every week for practices.<br />
Kerra swam for the Frisco FASST team for 6 years, but has not swam the past 3<br />
years because there was no swim team until now. She had 6 just 6 workouts<br />
before the first meet. Alex swam at Ponca City High School in Oklahoma as a<br />
freshman, but also hasn't swam the past 3 years for lack of a team.<br />
Kerra and Madeline swam recently in the Mc Kinney Invitational and finished<br />
12th out of 18 teams with just two girls. Madeline got 3rd in the 100 backstroke<br />
with a time of 1.19 and 4th in the 500 freestyle with a time of 6.35. Kerra got 7th in<br />
the backstroke with a time of 1.24 and 20th in the 100 freestyle with a time of 1.18.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are only AAAA and AAAAA districts in swim, so <strong>Gunter</strong> will be competing in<br />
District 9 of Region II in AAAA. <strong>The</strong>ir district consist of teams from Sherman, Denison,<br />
Paris HS, Paris North Lamar, Prosper, Bonham and <strong>Gunter</strong>.<br />
Congratulations!<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lady <strong>Tige</strong>rs JV basketball<br />
team not only won the district<br />
tournament recently, but are<br />
undefeated this season.<br />
<strong>The</strong> girls are coached by<br />
