Stanley Middle School holds grand opening

By Alan Hodge alan.bannernews@gmail.com

The new $30 million Stanley Middle School held its official grand opening last Sunday afternoon. Students had moved into the school for classes two weeks earlier and Sunday's event gave the general public, as well as a large number of various school and civic officials, a chance to tour the state of the art facility.

The school has a plethora of great features that will make going there an exciting educational experience including: a modern library and media center, which serves as the heart of the school and is located near the main entrance; a spacious cafeteria with stage area and large gymnasium to allow for a variety of uses; grades separated by wings, with the sixth grade on the main floor and seventh and eighth grades on the second floor as well as administration areas on each floor; separate bus and vehicle entrances plus 175 parking spaces and a pick-up lane that is able to accommodate 90 cars; maximum use of natural light and energy efficiency throughout the school.

Gaston Schools officials heaped praise on the place.

This is an extremely exciting day in Stanley,” said Gaston Schools superin-

tendent Jeffrey Booker. “This is the most magnificent middle school in Gaston County. It is a jewel and an amazing and beautiful building.”

Stanley Middle principal Rebecca Huffstetler agreed.

“This is a big moment in Gaston County and Stanley,” she said. “This is a cause for celebration.”

Stanley mayor Steven Denton compared the new school to a wise investment and borrowed a phrase from Benjamin Franklin to push home his point.

“Franklin said an investment in knowledge pays best because it pays dividends for years,” Dention said.

The new school has yet another exciting chapter coming up.

Beginning next school year (20182019), Gaston County Schools’ new STEAM Academy for grades 6-8 will be housed at Stanley Middle School. The school choice program will offer a distinct emphasis on Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics for all students at the school. Through the STEAM Academy, students will be immersed in academic experiences that balance science and technology with mathematics and engineering and infuse artistic concepts.

Millican Pictorial Museum a treasure trove of images

By Alan Hodge

alan.bannernews@gmail.com

If a picture is worth a thousand words then the 17,000 images housed in the Millican Pictorial Museum in Belmont speak volumes.

Created by Allen Millican, and located at 35 E. Catawba in the Abram Stowe House, which is the oldest house in Belmont, the free museum is the third most popular tourist stop in the Belmont area according to TripAdvisor.

“People come from all over to see the photo collection,” Millican says. “I've had people from as far away as Paris, France and Puerto Rico stop by.”

What's the attraction? An incredible array of old photos that Millican has restored and reproduced.

The main body of work consists of pictures taken in

Group gathering support to preserve and maintain Stanley cemetery

Mt. Holly Council swears in new firefighter, recognizes championship teams

A group calling itself the Stanley Cemetery Ancestry Fund (SCAF) has been formed with the idea of creating a perpetual maintenance situation for the 200+ year old cemetery next to Christ Lutheran Church on NC27 in downtown Stanley.

Currently, the cemetery has only occasional upkeep such as mowing, weeding, and other work to keep it looking presentable.

Bob Havosky is a member of Christ Lutheran and heads up the maintenance/ preservation group. Havosky explained the current situation.

“Some of our church members are doing some maintenance, but we are hoping to be able to have a contractor do it by mid April if enough money comes in to our fund,” he said. “I personally will be providing a large donation this week. Keep in mind,

By Mary Smith The Mount Holly Fire Department welcomed its newest firefighter to the ranks on Monday, March 12 with a swearing-in ceremony at the Mount Holly City Council meeting.

Firefighter Adrian Miller has been involved with the fire service since 2010 when he started as a Long Creek Volunteer firefighter. He will continue to volunteer for Long Creek during his time with the Mount Holly Fire Department. Miller was hired in 2015 as a part-time employee. Last year he was hired full time, and he has completed his probationary period. Currently, he is working towards his degree and other related certifications.

Miller’s badge was pinned on him by his father.

Chief Baker explained the significance and history of the Mount Holly Fire Department badge to those in attendance. The newest Mount Holly Fire Department’s badge looks identical to the first badge created for the department (Founded Year 1914). It was

CEMETERY from page 1 the Town said it costs $500.00 per cut to maintain the cemetery. Contract negotiations are underway. Some months it takes weekly cuts, some months during the growing season maybe every other week. And then there are the fire ants to deal with.”

The cemetery goes back to 1806. Through the centuries, documentation to assign legal ownership of it to anyone or any organization has become murky. Nonetheless, the property is one of the most historic plots in the Stanley area.

Mahovsky provided some background on the cemetery.

“In the year 1806 a person named E. Cloninger was buried on land owned by the Alexander Brevard family near Stanley’s Creek,” he said.

“Public cemeteries being so scarce in those days, other burials soon followed nearby, and, intentionally or otherwise, a cemetery was created.

Over the decades, many people, some from the far reaches of Lincoln and Gaston Counties, were buried there. It was a community cemetery for Brevard Station, as the town which is now Stanley was then known, but also a cemetery for the greater Stanley area.

In 1841, thirty-five years later, the Brevard family gave part of their land to a religious group, people who had no church building but met in one of their homes. That group was called the Lutherans. In time, Christ Lutheran Church was constructed adjacent to the cemetery where it still stands. The Brevards

also sold some of their land with parts of the cemetery to other families. Throughout the years from 1841 until 2017 this cemetery became the burial site for hundreds of citizens, including fifty seven Civil War soldiers.”

The SCAF has a solid plan in place to see the cemetery saved and beautified.

“The immediate goal is to organize a nonprofit fund to pay for the maintenance of the low-growing vegetation in the Stanley Cemetery as the mowing season begins this spring,” Mahavsky said.

“Longer term, the group hopes to create and endow a perpetual care fund as a permanent solution to the maintenance problem.”

Havosky says the idea is to contact anyone who has a relative who in the distant past or more recently was buried in the cemetery and ask them to help fund the maintenance. Meanwhile, Stanley resident and SCAF board member Doris Cope is working diligently to apply to the State of North Carolina to have this cemetery officially designated as an historic site.

In addition, the SCAF is applying for non-profit status as well as incorporation.

Mahovsky says there is a sense of urgency about getting a maintenance program in place.

“Sadly there was never a perpetual care fee associated with cemetery plot sales in this cemetery, so now we find ourselves discussing once again who is responsible for maintaining that land,” he said. “Many people in our

community and surrounding area believe it is the community’s responsibility to honor the heroes in the cemetery for what they did for us, and we should show that respect by working together on having the cemetery classified as an historic site and not argue over who owns the cemetery, or worse let it, over time, have no one accept ownership and let it become an overgrown field of weeds.”

Easter Prayers In America - We Need It sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground."

Many of us have prayed fervently. Many years ago I held my dead stillborn son for over two hours and wept without ceasing. I prayed as I wept that I would wake from this nightmare.

I prayed that our little boy would awaken and cry as other newborn babies do but while I prayed with everything in me that little baby would not come to life and would later be buried in a grave where I still visit today. There have been many other times I have prayed in agony. I prayed for the healing of my wife of 27 years who died from a long illness of multiple sclerosis. I have prayed for other people and in other scenarios.

The prayers did not stop death from coming to my wife nor has prayer necessarily changed a lot of other stuff that I prayed for or about along the way.

When Jesus prayed it did not alleviate the cruelty of the cross or make his treatment from evil people any easier or better. His treatment could not have been any worse. Why did Jesus even bother to pray? Why do you even bother to pray?

Prayer is a spiritual event of the heart and mind. Prayer often prepares you mentally and enables you to deal with what is going on. Prayer is about something that is beyond us. Prayer is about the unseen. It's about the spiritual and is all about bringing God into the scenario.

Jesus did not in any way fail in his prayer life. The intensity of his prayer was truly answered as Jesus accomplished what he set out to do and that was to take the sins of the world on him as he suffered, bled and died on a rugged cross. The ultimate victory is

MUSEUM from page 1 include textile mill villages and workers, schools, amusements such as Stowe Park, churches, sports teams and players, and local celebrities and civic leaders. More recently, Millican has expanded his photo collection to include early scenes from Charlotte and Gastonia. He has also built up a large number of photos showing movie stars from the golden age of films.

The photos are just part of the museum's allure. Millican knows the history behind nearly every one of the pictures and can tell the stories to anyone interested in hearing them.

“There are so many stories it's unbelievable,” he says.

In addition to the pictures, Millican also has a large number of historical, local city directories and high school annuals.

The museum is an outgrowth of Millican's interest in photography. After a career in the auto parts industry, he found himself ready for a change and challenge. He opened a studio in Belmont back in 2003 and things grew from there.

“The Lord designed this job for me,” he says.

Now that Millican's collection has grown to epic proportions, he's simply run out of space to put things. Not only that, but at age 72 he wonders what will happen to everything when the day comes he can no longer “run the shop”.

Help could be coming in the form of a group of local leaders who are working with Millican to move the collection to a bigger, better site where it would be on display. Several potential locations are currently being considered.

“I hope to become a nonprofit and have volunteers help with the larger museum,” Millican said. “I am passing all this on to mankind.”

seen in that God empowered him to come b a c k to life conquering the grave, death and sin for all of manGlenn Mollette kind.

Nothing was more beautiful to the followers of Jesus than seeing a risen, living Jesus. Thomas a follower exclaimed in marvel upon seeing the risen Jesus and the nail prints in his hands, "My Lord and my God." We need prayer in America.

We need it bad. Our federal and state governments are in bad shape financially. Mismanagement, selfishness and chaos abound all around. Our schools need prayer. Our young adults in America are more lost than ever before. Families are suffering and torn apart. Homelessness continues to grow. We have become a nation that believes our only hope is to legalize more drugs, build more casinos, enact more taxes yet all the while we need more mental health workers than ever. We cannot hire enough security guards and arm them fast enough for our schools and other public places because our country is becoming scarier than what our soldiers are facing in Iraq and Afghanistan. All the while little unborn babies are not safe in America and the aged in America continue to increasingly work out the rest of their lives in order to survive.

While you are buying Easter candy this week take time to pray. Prayer doesn't always bring about what you specifically pray for. Sometimes it does and many times it does not. Just remember in his hour of greatest struggle that's what Jesus did - he prayed.

More than ever we need to pray for others, our country and ourselves.

The gospels of Matthew and Mark identify the place where Jesus prayed shortly before his betrayal by Judas and then later his trial and crucifixion as Gethsemane. Jesus was accompanied by three of his followers, Peter, John and James, whom he asked to stay awake and pray. During his agony as he prayed, "his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground" (Luke 22:44).

As much of the world will celebrate or at least recognize Holy Week, Good Friday and Easter a common ritual will take place at all the events - prayer.

Every Holy Week service will have at least one if not several prayers. The same will be true with all worship, Christian events on Good Friday and Easter. Prayer is always commonly associated with worship, church events, potluck dinners and almost any activity associated with Christianity.

Prayer has been a point of focus for millions of Americans.

We've even battled over whether we should pray at school, ballgames and political gatherings.

Unfortunately many Americans may not be praying at home which is where everyone has the complete freedom to do so without harassment or consternation from anyone else.

Jesus knew he was facing more pain than any human being could withstand. What he would experience during his trial and crucifixion was evil and barbaric. Emotionally, spiritually and physically he tried to prepare himself for something that he or no one could really prepare for yet he realized how vital it was to pray with intensity never quite like anyone before. The scriptures say he prayed, "His

Salvation Church Easter egg hunt

Sally McGinnis presented the program for the Tuesday Afternoon Book Club.

Gearl Dean Page photo

Salvation Church will be having an Easter egg hunt event Saturday, March 31 from 1-3pm at Greater Gaston Boys and Girls Club, 310 S. Boyd St., Gastonia. The event will feature music, egg hunt, Easter bunny, bubbles, crafts, bingo, snacks, and drinks. For more information visit facebook@ salvationchurchnc.

Tuesday Afternoon Book Club meets Church The Tuesday Afternoon Book Club met on March 18 at the First Presbyterian Church of Belmont. Gearl Dean page was the hostess.

Members exchanged greetings and ate a dessert as they assembled. The program was presented by Sally McGinnis (pictured), who told about her experiences as she recently spent six weeks in Saudi Arabia. Using maps, charts, photographs, and many items that she brought back, Sally related some of the experiences she had on the trip.

A governmental coup took place while she was there staged by one of two princes. Sally explained that her husband, Col. Gary McGinnis's mission was directing of of several programs the U.S. military is providing to help

the Saudis with training for better relations in the Middle East. While she was there Sally was able to travel to nearby places, including Dubai, where she went up in the highest building in the world. Several dresses that Sally showed were what she wore in order to cover herself from head to ankles in compliance with Saudi rules for women. Sally did say that some progress had been made to enable women to drive and be educated- privileges that have been denied for many years.

Sally's program ended with her message about how we, in America, are able to enjoy privileges that are not able to be enjoyed in Saudi Arabia, including our freedom to worship as we please.

When the world says “Give Up”…

Hope whispers “Not yet” Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. Hebrews 11:1 NIV A few weeks ago I received a reply email from a friend in another state. We met online several years ago. Because I had not heard from them in quite a while, I had written them a short note to check in and say hello a week or so prior. All was good, although their older dog “Carl”, had undergone surgery 9 months earlier. Quite a story, and the reason I wrote this devotion.

Carl had begun to gain weight over the course of many months, but yet the day came, when something seemed not right. Long story short, Carl ended up having an 8 ½ pound tumor removed that was attached to his spleen. The first vet that did his initial consultation had pretty much given him a death sentence. Not offering much hope from the get go, that Carl would even live, or for that matter, make it off the operating table. After all, he was already 11 years old. A second vet, along with a second opinion, followed a short time later. This brought another chance, and another moment of hope.

After tests and x-rays were performed, it was time to remove this monster from Carl. And so the doctor did. The minutes, hours, and days that followed were indeed too long, as my friend awaited word from the vet’s office on Carl’s fate.

The doctor called and gave the news; that given the size of this tumor, as well as cases like Carl’s in similar operations with other pets, 75%-80% of the time, these tumors are indeed cancer. All of the preliminary tests, and others done afterwards, said NO, it was not cancer. This veterinarian stated that it was undoubtedly,“Through the hand of God”, he was able to help an animal, one that

was suffering, and would have otherwise been put down or died shortly after; but now Carl may get the opportunity to live a few more years, rather than becoming another statistic, by the death sentence the first vet had given.

Here is what I know about God: HE has made everything beautiful in its time.

HE has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from the beginning to the end. Ecclesiastes 3:11.

As my friend in Alabama commented toward the end of that email, “I believe it was God’s lesson to me. I know he is ‘just a dog’, and that his life isn’t important, in the big scheme of things.

But, I think this reminded me that it’s okay to have hope. Even when things don’t look good, and even more importantly, that we shouldn’t give up on those we love.

Through life, we all will be faced with trials and uncertainty. But we can be assured that it is Ok to drop our guard now and then; and to be able to rely on God; by trusting HIM with worries and doubt. My prayer each day will be for sufficient grace and faith; and to put my trust completely in God always, and to let go of the control that none of us have anyway.

The follow-up email that came last week included ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures of precious Carl. He is doing great and no doubt has given my friend that added security that Hope is alive and well. Just the way God planned in all of us.

HOPE is being able to see that there is light, despite of all of the darkness.

Keeping the faith, Lisa Harper/Belmont NC

Live Unashamed When I was young and in school, I was always somewhat self-conscious and insecure. I was not the biggest, and never really took part in sports. I just tried to blend in the crowd and disappear. Ironically, God in His grace and mercy called me to be a pastor. I went from wanting to disappear, to standing before people each week and pro- Rev. Trent Rankin claiming God. In this I learned to be bold, Salvation Church and comfortable as me. I learned to live Gastonia, NC unashamed before God. This past Sunday salvationchurchnc.org we celebrated Palm Sunday, remembering salvationchurchnc@gmail.com Jesus’s triumphant entry into Jerusalem.

This event began Holy Week, culminating with the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ on that first Easter.

Luke 19:28-44 records the events of that first Palm Sunday. On that day, Jesus, as He prepared to enter Jerusalem to observe the Passover feast, sent two of His disciples to find a colt. He told them that if the owner asked why they were taking it, to tell them Jesus needed him. They found the colt just as Jesus said, and brought him to Jesus. Jesus began to ride the colt into the city. As He did, throngs of people began to gather crying hosanna! They said “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord” (Luke 19:38, NKJV). The Pharisees wanted Jesus to quiet the crowd, but Jesus said if they did the very rocks would cry out in praise to Him. When we think of this great event, what does it mean to us in 2018, in the world in which we live in? This story speaks of living unashamed. We live in a time when our world wants to silence Christians. We are told to worship in private. No public prayer, and no reading of God’s Word is needed in public. According to many, there is no place for Christians in public. The Pharisees wanted to silence Jesus’s followers in the same way that first Palm Sunday.

Satan desperately wants us to shut up. He knows we speak of the truths of Jesus, and he does not want us to tell others of the life changing message of Jesus Christ. That is why no other religion is attacked as Christianity is, because we speak of the only way to God, through Jesus Christ. However, as Christians, we can be silent no longer. Just as those people gathered around Jesus that day proclaimed Him boldly, so must we. We need to stand boldly and be counted for Jesus Christ. If we are going to win a lost world to Jesus Christ, it will take Christians who live unashamed. It will take Christians who do not care what their enemies say or do. It will take Christians who will not be silenced. This Easter season, you have an incredible opportunity to tell someone about Jesus Christ.

Seize this opportunity today. Live bold before Jesus, let someone see Him in you. If you do, you will change lives for Jesus Christ.

Live unashamed for Jesus!

Cramerton Farmers Market returning The Cramerton Parks and Recreation Department is excited to bring back the Farmer’s Market in 2018.

“We are revising how our market operates and we think everyone is going to love it,” said Parks and Rec. director Eric Smallwood. “We have a brand-new location – The Mayworth Promenade which is the grassy field located at the corner of 8th Avenue and Hampton Court. Our 2018 market will be an open air, tailgate market – vendors can sell their goods right from the back of their vehicles and we encourage everyone to bring their own tents and tables.

Lastly, we are now allowing local artisans to sell local, handmade artwork at the market as well.”

a tailgate market, we want people to be able to display and sell their goods however they see fit in the easiest, most efficient way possible. This will also allow for what we are hoping to become a more “natural and organic” feeling market – one which seems as if vendors came right from the field, kitchen, or workshop to the market to sell goods. We want to enhance the community and culture of Cramerton through this market and show the importance and impact of buying locally sourced and created food and goods. The backs of local farmers and artisans are those by which small towns were built and our goal is to have the community embrace those great resources.”

In 2018 the Market will operate from May thru September on Monday evenings from 3pm-7pm. Pricing will be as follows: $25.00 Membership fee – Fee will be

waived if vendors pre-pay for the entire season (multiple day discounts listed below still apply). $10.00 Weekly booth fee – Vendors prepaying for spots will receive at buy 3 get the 4th day free discount (example: If you pay for May 7, 14, 21 at one time you will receive May 28 for free which results in a total of four days for $30.00).

As the season draws closer Parks and Rec. will set the date for a vendor meeting to discuss the new Market Rules in detail. If you are interested in being a part of this great community opportunity, please email Cristy Busler at cbusler@cramerton.org to get on our Farmer’s Market email list to be contacted about important updates.

If you have any immediate questions, please call the Cramerton Parks and Recreation Department at 704-8244231.

South Point squeaks out pair of 3-2 wins over East Gaston

By John Wilson john.bannernews@gmail.com

Last week, South Point baseball went at it with the East Gaston Warriors playing two games in four days.

The games were important for a bunch of reasons.

First, it was South Point vs East Gaston.

Secondly, the games were a critical conference matchup in a league that is proving to be very competitive.

Last, but not least, both teams are at a stage in the season where positive momentum is what you want rolling into the upcoming Spring Break.

After it was all over, the Red Raiders came away with a pair of tough 3-2 victories.

In Game 1 on Tuesday, Ethan Shell pitched a complete game.

The senior allowed seven hits and two earned runs. Shell also tossed five strikeouts.

Shell also turned out being the Red Raiders leading hitter, going two for four with one RBI. Overall, South Point had six hits as a team.

In Friday night’s Game 2 matchup Evan Mauldin got the start for South Point.

Like Shell, Mauldin also pitched a complete game.

In Game 2, things didn’t exactly start off good for the senior right hander.

Mauldin gave up two runs early when East Gaston’s Logan Russell slammed out a two run homer.

After East Gaston jumped out to a 2-0 lead Mauldin and the Red Raiders bunkered down.

Mauldin ended the game only giving up two runs and two hits. He had six strikeouts as

well.

The Red Raiders bats got more work in Game 2 as well.

“We had 10 hits as a team,” South Point head coach Jason Lineberger said.

“Jordan Lathe had three including a walk off single in the bottom of the seventh.”

Cam Hilton and Evan Mauldin also hit well for Big Red. Hilton went two for three, and Mauldin was two for two.

After the game coach Lineberger broke down the pros and cons.

“In both games we made a bunch of mistakes on offense,” Lineberger added. “Especially base running. In Game 1 we played good defense and didn’t hit much. In Game 2 we made mistakes on defense too, but we were able to get out of some jams.”

No doubt Lineberger wants to clean up the mistakes, but he is also happy with the fact that his squad found a way to win.

“This team has made a lot of mistakes, but they keep finding a way to win,” Linberger noted. “We got two really good pitching performances against a solid hitting East Gaston team, and that proved to be the difference.”

The EG wins proved to be big in another way.

Last week, the conference leading R-S Central Hilltoppers stumbled when they lost to East Rutherford 2-0. That loss gave South Point their chance to grab a share of first place in the Southwestern 2A. “We are 7-2 overall and 6-1 in the conference,” Lineberger added. “Tied for first place. It’s a good start, but we need to continue to get better.”

It was head first for home plate for East Gaston’s Josh Jolly #2 as the South Point catcher goes off balance.

After long wait EG senior gets her win

By John Wilson john.bannernews@gmail.com

They say that good things come to those that wait.

For East Gaston’s Ashlyn Presson the wait lasted for four years.

That’s how long Presson has waited to beat South Point in softball.

After losing to the Lady Raiders every year since being a freshman, Presson finally got a chance to be on the winning side of an East Gaston-South Point match up when the Lady South Point’s #1 Hana McKee and East Gaston’s #2 Meagan Warriors beat South Point 12-2 on Thursday and 8-5 on Friday. Vernon exchange pleasantries during the game.

Presson made the most of the Thursday win by going three for three at the plate. The senior team captain also turned in a 1.000 fielding percentage. Presson had six putouts out off of eight chances.

For her efforts, Presson was named the MaxPreps player of the game.

MaxPreps is a nationally known website that covers high school sports across the country.

In Thursday’s win, East Gaston went to work against South Point early, rolling out to a 4-0 lead in the first inning.

After the strong first inning, the Lady Warriors added runs in all but one of the next six innings.

Besides Presson, other East Gaston players had good games on Thursday.

Pitcher, Peyton Kegley and batters Alexis Hawkins, Emily East Gaston’s #18 Emily Green slides for the base.

Allen and Emma Kuproski all played well against South Point.

In Friday’s win the game was a bit tighter but East Gaston still came out on top. The Lady Warriors pumped out 12 hits and only gave up two errors on their way to the 8-5 win.

Kegley again got the start on the mound and had to fight hard for the whole game.

South Point got 13 hits but the EG defense helped Kegley by limiting the damage.

Friday’s top batters were Emily Allen, Emily Green and Meagan Vernon.

Allen went three for thee with two RBI’S. Green went three for two with an RBI. Vernon had a .500 hitting day with two hits and three RBI’s.

East Gaston head coach Kaci Wilcox is glad, and relieved the Lady Warriors came away with double wins against South Point.

Coach Wilcox has immense respect for coach Leah Brooks and the Lady Raiders program.

“Anytime we play South Point it’s a good game,” Wilcox said. “They are our biggest rival it’s always nice to come on om top with a win.”

D S.c E I Things are definitely looking up for EG softball right now.

SSIF CLA The Lady Warriors are now back in the hunt in the Southwestern 2A. EG has a 6-4 record overall. They are 4-3 in the conference and are tied for third place.

“It’s mid season now,” Wilcox added. “It’s nice to start the second round with two wins. Especially against South Point.”

Red Team South Point Stock Market Team

South Point, Highland earn top honors in financial literacy competition Once again, students from South Point High School and Highland School of Technology have captured top honors in the Stock Market Game, a highly-competitive financial literacy program.

South Point finished first and Highland took second in the regional competition that featured high school teams from western North Carolina. The North Carolina Council for Economic Education sponsors the Stock Market Game, which tests students’ knowledge of business and finance.

The winning team from South Point includes students Nick Matthew, Andrew Robinson, Charlie Tran, and Riley Nichols. Their adviser is David Grimes. The team from Highland includes students Landon Burr, Matthew Stewart, and John Castillo. Their adviser is Dan Froehlich.

In the Stock Market Game, the students focused on investing a hypothetical $100,000 in bonds, stocks, and mutual funds. The competition ran last fall from September 5 until December 15.

White Team Highland Stock Market Team

South Point recognized a return in excess of 52 percent over the S&P growth, and the team finished with a virtual portfolio valued at $161,489.48. Highland’s team finished with more than 23 percent over the S&P growth with a total of $132,762.39.

The competition teaches students to think critically and to work together to implement successful strategies. According to Grimes and Froehlich, the experience gives students an opportunity to gain knowledge and skills that they can put to use in the field of business and finance.

Mock Trial teams bring home wins...

This is not the first time that students from Gaston County Schools have excelled in financial literacy competitions.
