Nick Letendre<br />
Reprinted as seen in your student handbook<br />
Dear Bearcat Nation,<br />
Welcome to <strong>Ruston</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>, one of the top schools in Louisiana and the country. You are now a part of the Bearcat<br />
Nation in which I consider a true honor. As Student Council President, I, Nick Letendre, would like to welcome you to<br />
<strong>Ruston</strong> <strong>High</strong>. our school is based of tradition, pride, and excellence. It is our tradition to exhibit that Bearcat pride and excellence<br />
in everything we do both in the classroom and throughout our extracurricular activities.<br />
At RHS, there is something for everyone. There are many clubs, organizations, and sports for each of you to get involved<br />
in and I recommend that you do so. It will make your high school experience the most it can be so make this year<br />
and the years to follow the best they can be RHS.<br />
Again, I welcome you to <strong>Ruston</strong> <strong>High</strong> and I hope your years here are as fun and interesting as mine have been.<br />
Once a Bearcat, Always a Bearcat,<br />
Nick Letendre<br />
Beginning next month, despite his very busy schedule, RHS Student Council President Nick Letendre will enlightened students with various<br />
words of wisdom, some light humor, and maybe even a special motivational article or two. If you want Nick to write on specific subject, let<br />
him know. He might. He might not. That would be Nick‘s call. The article will be called ―Ask Nick‖, unless Nick decides to change it.<br />
Ask the Staff<br />
by Kori Teague<br />
Guest Reporter<br />
Q: I am nervous about a tough school year. What should I do to keep my stress low?<br />
A: First off, don‘t bite off more than you can chew. Get a planner so you can keep up with what you have going on.<br />
Make sure you can keep your priorities in order. If school is the most important thing to you, make sure you get school<br />
work done before you worry about anything else.<br />
Don‘t over work yourself. Allow yourself some chill time every day. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.<br />
Enjoy your year, but still get everything done. It is very possible.<br />
If you have a question that you would like to ―Ask the Staff‖, let Kori know. Kori has been a<br />
guest reporter for <strong>Chatterbox</strong> since we adopted the new format, and wants to hear your questions.<br />
She‘ll take the best question (s) and ensure that you‘ll get the right answer. As always, your identity<br />
will not be revealed unless you want us to so that you can get your name in the newspaper. If<br />
you can‘t find Kori, feel free to turn in your question to anyone on the <strong>Chatterbox</strong> staff and we‘ll<br />
get it to her. Or as everyone should know by now, email us at chatterbox@lincolnschools.org.<br />
