Mummy's Tomb by Vallery

Note: Mummy's Tomb is an annual Leading Edge Sixth grade tradition spanning 21 years.

In Mrs. Bibayoff’s class, we had the mummification scene, king, queen, guards, glam girls (girls holding Canopic jars), the mummy, a priest, earthquake zombies, and Anubis the jackal.

In Mr. O’Brien’s class, we had the Hall of terror. They had Osiris, Ammut, Anubis, a soul, a sphinx, and many more scary stuff. 

In Ms. Meindl’s room, they had Bastet, mummy dancers, and many more. They played the song “Thriller” by Michael Jackson. The riddle of the sphinx was, “What walks on four legs in the morning, two in the noon, and three in the evening”. The answer was a man. My role was Anubis the jackal. I had to say only one line.

This event was really fun! I enjoyed it so much. In Mrs. Bibayoff’s class, it kind of looked like Christmas because of the warm white, cool white, and blue lights.

Basketball Game by DJ

At the basketball game on Monday, they played Mills at home so me and my friends went to go watch JV play. They started off rough.  Then they started to pick it up and eventually started to score points.This picture shows what the score was at half time. They did come back at the 2nd quarter because the other team was winning.

Then out of the 2nd quarter, they started hot. It wasn’t enough because they started to lose. Then at the end, they ended strong but they lost by one point. It was a sad loss. They might have lost this game, but they can’t be discouraged because they could still bounce back from that loss and win the last game.

Halloween by Mya and McKayla

For the costumes, all of the people that we talk to for what they were going to be for Halloween and a lot of people were characters from the purge. Most of the boys are going to be characters from scary movies. Most of the girls are going to be clowns and people from the purge. Some people are not going to be anything. 


I think the purge is popular because a lot of people don't really want to buy a costume and the purge you can just by the mask, so you don't have to waste that much money one a costume that you’re only going to wear for a day. And the Purge is a popular movie. And I think why cat costume because of it a classic costume, all so horror costume because horror movies are really popular.

Boys Basketball by Joseph and Tim

What a fantastic start of the basketball season! The JV team came out strong, shooting 3 pointers left and right! NCS scores with another 3 pointer

Alright this is the first boys basketball game of the season and here’s the meeting.

With all these good shooters the final score was NCS 36 and CCS 17.

Varsity played a great game too--winning 48 to 27!

We have a game next Tuesday! So make sure to come and watch!

Fall Break by Ashlynn

During the week of October 7-11,2019, We have a fall break every year in October. The 8th graders were in Washington DC. Many people did different things. It was our first long break. We finished 2 social studies units about Geography and Early Humans and Early Farming and Mesopotamia. We also did our Culture Museum and finished many art projects. It was nice for everyone to have a break after everything. Everyone has worked so hard!!

Our Culture Museum by Kim and Ana-L

This is the beginning of our tour of the Culture Museum created by the 6th Graders. Everyone did a great job and learned a lot about how habitat and ecosystems relate to the development of human cultures. Here's the complete video tour; everyone was so creative!

First Dance by Hailey

The first dance was made by the leadership group. They put together a fall theme, the first dance of 2019. There was a whole section of food and drinks. They also put together a bunch of posters and designs to put up. For example, they made some posters that the leaves were made of hand cut-outs.

At the dance six grade and Mrs. Navello’s class made a scarecrow. Mrs. Bibayoff made a Peppa Pig scarecrow, Mr. O’Brien made a minion scarecrow, Ms. Meindl made a VSCO girl scarecrow, and Mrs. Novello’s class made a scarecrow out of shoes. At the dance, you could hang out inside of the dance or you could go outside in an area. A lot of people were dancing with their friends and hanging out with their friends. I would say that my first dance was a good experience.
