The teachers lost their winning streak of the student vs. staff kickball game during academic lab on Wednesday, April 27 with a final score of 13-2. The game was held to help fund and raise money for the Siteman Cancer Center, which North was able to bring in over $500 for the organization. “It was a super fun atmosphere to see the teachers finally lose against the students and North needs more extra events like this out of the classroom to get better student involvement inside the classroom,” said junior Taylor Blackman.

“They give us an opportunity to take a break in the day, I just wish it were longer, especially when we get to eat outside,” said junior Nathaniel Fields.
