KM GIRL SCOUTS RECOGNIZED AT BOARD MEETING!!! Girl Scouts is thriving in our community, and several area students have had big achievements! Katie Flemming (HS^2) is one of only three students serving on Girl Scouts of Wisconsin Southeast's (GSWISE) Board of Directors this year. On the Board, she helps influence policy regarding council goals and issues, strategic planning, financial oversight, and fund development. Two KM Global students have earned the Gold Award, the highest award in Girl Scouts in grades 9-12. To earn the Gold Award, a Girl Scout identifies an issue in her community, creates a plan to address a root cause, and leads a team of volunteers to implement it. Madeline Bruss (Troop 8329) addressed the issue of middle school students struggling with math by creating a tutoring program that offered personalized after-school math assistance. She trained her team of tutors from KMHS on effective tutoring methods, including how to explain concepts using examples, visual aids, and different approaches to problem-solving. The program will continue after Madeline's graduation, as she established the KMHS Math Tutoring Club. Sarah Marcheske (Troop 8329) improved the learning environment and quality of education of her church's Sunday school classrooms. Teachers observed that students had difficulty staying focused and retaining information. After learning how color impacts learning and mood, Sarah researched the best colors for different age groups and repainted and reorganized three classrooms. She also designed and painted a mural outside the classrooms to spark children's interest. Troop 12034 from Wales Explore has earned the Bronze Award, the highest award that can be received by Girl Scouts in grades 4-5. Lily A., Piper B., Alex D., Korynn G., Autumn H., Junia H., Mary K., Nora S., Kinsley S., and Trista S. saw a need to help provide access to books for children in our area. They created a little free library next to the outdoor learning center at Wales Elementary School, where children (and parents) can take and share books, encouraging literacy, recycling, and community connection.

A potential game-tying shot was denied with only 42 seconds left, setting up a final score of 9-8. Despite heartbreaking finishes, both teams demonstrated the strength of KM's lacrosse program and the talent and determination of these amazing athletes.
