The 6th graders enjoyed a guest speaker in Social Studies class on Friday, May 12th. Former STC students, Lauren Klump and her sister Ashley came to our school to give a presentation on what it was like to live in Japan.
The students are currently studying Asia, so it was extremely meaningful for them to meet and learn from people who actually experienced the Japanese country and culture.
We truly appreciate that Lauren and Ashley were willing to offer this opportunity to our students.

We would like to thank Bill and his team at Mike's Wrecker Services for providing a vehicle at St Charles High School to bring awareness to drunk, high, distracted driving. As prom and summer approach, Officer Ott and Ms. Jordan remind our students of the importance of safe driving and decision-making.
Alcohol is a leading cause of traffic fatalities. Drinking and driving kills 28 people a day in the U.S. — about one person every 52 minutes — according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
According to data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), drivers on marijuana were about 25% more likely to be involved in a crash than drivers without the drug in their system.
Distracted driving among teens aged 15-17 has been shown to decrease when the number of passengers in the vehicle is limited. By limiting the number of passengers, fatalities from distracted driving decreased by 21% with zero passengers and 7% when there was one passenger.
Distracted driving was responsible for an estimated 8% of fatal crashes, 14% of injury crashes, and 13% of all police-reported motor vehicle traffic crashes in 2020
The age group with the highest percentage of fatalities from distracted driving was ages 15-20, representing 7% of the total fatalities.
