Hey guys welcome to today's sisters pride. Today we are going to have a compilation of stories that a couple of students, including myself, have noticed around campus. They are small acts of kindness or even big ones. Everyone will remain anonymous, but the silent heroes' acts of kindness should be shared.

Today is Friday, and it's a great time to reflect on the week you’ve had. It's essential to check in with yourself and remember on your stress levels or lack thereof concerning your academic and social life. As students who are academically challenged and motivated, it can be hard to find the right balance of spending time doing your homework and spending time with friends and family.

It's important to know where your priorities lie if you feel like school needs to become a priority, you have to almost make a pact with yourself saying that you will put homework over hanging out with friends.

On the contrary, if you feel like school has encompassed your whole being and taking a step back for the weekend is something that will benefit you emotionally and in the classroom then it is just as essential to make that a priority as well.

Today I want to talk about living in a small town. The town of Tappahannock holds 2,241 people. For some people that might be the exact hallmark-town charm they are looking for, for others it might not be as appealing. So we're gonna dive into the benefits and other factors that weigh in when living in a small town.

So today, I wanted to share with you a journal entry assignment I had in my American literature class. The prompt was to explain your relationship with social media.

My relationship with social media can be described in one word: toxic. I was exposed to the media at age fourteen. Being surrounded by peers who had it years before me, I felt behind. As a child, social media felt like a “secret club.” Parents warned you from becoming too invested and tried to prevent the exposure of influencers from their innocent-minded children for as long as possible. Then society got in the way.

Anything from fashion trends, makeup hacks, and cat videos, the algorithm caters to each video, each comment, and each post to you. It targets your insecurities, your interests, and your passions. When you download the app, there is no cost. But is it truly free if you're selling your information to an algorithm that gets closer and closer to your inner thoughts and ideas? Yet we go about our day knowing what's happening but not genuinely caring.

Hey, y'all welcome back and I hope the community is up on its feet again. As many of you have experienced over the past few days my sister and I have had covid and it brought me back to our first time experiencing this pandemic and how much we have individually changed since the pandemic but also how our society has changed.

Do yall remember the time before covid? Before TikTok became the lifeline of our daily routine. Before the pandemic was a word we just heard in history books. There were times when I missed pre-pandemic life, but then I remembered the silver lining of the pandemic. For one- I got to spend quality time with my sister, who was also in quarantine. We spent time doing Walmart crafts together and catching up on our favorite Netflix shows. In between afternoon naps, we even started cooking.

On April 28th, we are calling on the Saint Margaret’s Sisterhood, near and far, young and old, to return to the river for our Centennial Gala.  This is one of those “once in a lifetime” gatherings marking our 100th year.   While the school did open in 1921, it was not until 1923 that the first graduation took place - so we decided to celebrate our Centennial with our Centennial Class, the Class of 2023.  This will be both our Reunion Weekend, May Ball and Centennial Gala all rolled up into one.  So, in the week before the Kentucky Derby - we hope you will return to Tappahannock and the campus of your youth.

Yesterday, Mr. Foulk brought an opportunity to the table for his AP US History class. We were going to be student representatives of the Garden club of the middle peninsula and learn about their positions on government laws and bills concerning climate change, environmental education, and clean water and energy. The week before our big trip we prepared by doing research on a topic of interest that fell into the categories that the Garden club would represent.

Happy Monday everyone. Today we are talking about three ways you can set your week off right. Monday marks the beginning of new topics in your classes, new homework assignments and new challenges throughout your week.
