Kings Mountain’s Mountaineers hit the field for the state 3A playoffs last week at West Henderson High School and came home with an impressive 56-7 victory. They travel to Statesville Friday night for a second round game with the undefeated Greyhounds.

Mountaineers roll into state playoffs The last time Kings Mountain High’s football team was eliminated in the first round of the state playoffs was in 2014 when they fell to the West Henderson Falcons in Hendersonville.

The current Mountaineers certainly made up for that Friday night with an impressive 56-7 win at West Henderson that puts them on the road Friday night for a second round matchup with the undefeated Statesville

Greyhounds.

Don’t expect another blowout.

Statesville is a powerhouse with 17 returning starters, and the Mountaineers will have to play even better than they did last year when they edged the Greyhounds and eventually went to the Western 3A championship game before falling to Charlotte Catholic, which won the state 3A championship the following week.

Friday’s game will probably the Mountaineers’ toughest so far as the Greyhounds have run roughshod over all but one of their opponents.

The Mountaineers have had the state championship on their mind for almost a year, so they can’t slack off for a minute if they expect to get to Raleigh in December.

During their impressive run since that loss to

West Henderson in ’14, the Mountaineers have had deep runs including two Western 3A championship games in 2015 against South Point and 2018 against Charlotte Catholic. Lloyd’s Mountaineers also went to the Western championship in 2008 when they lost at home to Kannapolis, which was coached by former Mountaineer coach Ron Massey.

TODAY’S QUOTE:

Thanksgiving Day is a good day to recommit our energies to giving thanks and just giving.

–Amy Grant

Pieces of Kings Mountain History “The first Boy Scout troop in the nation was formed at St. Matthews Lutheran Church in Kings Mountain LORETTA in 1908.”

COZART I learned this when I was young.

I was lucky enough to speak about it with Kings Mountain historian Virginia Hinnant on several occasions. Her mother, Bonnie Mauney Summers, was also a keeper of Kings Mountain history. Both were members and historians for St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church.

Harvey James Hamrick has just released his book on this topic, Boy Scouting in the North Carolina Foothills, 1908 – 1958, chronicling the history of the early scout troops, Bud Schiele, the

Piedmont Council and the Piedmont Boy Scout Camp.

The story of the Boy Scouts in the foothills of western North Carolina is one of innovation, strong leadership, and persistence in the face of enormous challenges. From its beginnings in Kings Mountain, the Scouting movement in the eleven counties overseen by the Piedmont Council gave opportunities for learning and growth to many young North Carolinians in the mid-twentieth century.

Mr. Hamrick reached out last August to discuss his book which he had just sent to the publisher.

In the book’s first chapter, Hamrick points out, “Surviving former Boy Scouts of the 1940s and 1950s are now in their late seventies, eighties, and nineties, so existing memory banks are on

the decline. Therefore, there is some urgency in getting the facts straight now.” The book is a labor of love to preserve this history while those who lived it can contribute.

Reading through the forward is like reading a Who’s Who of local historians, from Don Crawford to Natalie Bishop, including a plethora of historians in between.

Hamrick concludes, “The first troop, and

holiday events with special programs; it does mean a student cannot be forced to participate in a faiththemed program. And it does not mean a bulletin board cannot contain a scripture verse; it does mean a student cannot be forced to read or recite the verse.

Misunderstanding #2: Our society has grown accustomed to a bleached view of our nation’s rich spiritual heritage, the very foundation of our government and culture. We have been told our founders were merely deists, not Christians, which is an untruth that began emerging in schools in the last third of the 1900s. Students are not taught that the newly

100 boys were members in the late 1950s and early 1960s, making it one of the largest troops in the Southeast.”

Several Kings Mountain residents remember seeing a letter from Lord Baden-Powell granting permission to have a troop, however nobody knows where the letter is today. Virginia Hinnant speculated, in the early 1990’s, that one of the former scoutmasters probably packed it away for safekeeping. As things often go, that letter may now be stored in a box in someone’s attic. The person may not even realize they have it. We can only hope it is one day found and placed in the care of the museum.

Thanks to the work of many dedicated individuals, scouting took root in Kings Mountain.

One-hundred and eleven years of scouting has instilled a duty to God and country, others and oneself. Thousands of young people benefited from the scouting movement. Our community also benefited because these young people were trained up in the ways they should conduct themselves in life. Many matured to be people of character who passed on those valuable ideals to others.

We have a good scouting heritage in Kings Mountain, one of which the community is proud. And rightly so.

Established in Kings Mountain in 1908 at the St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church by Rev. Dr. C. K. Bell, it received its charter directly from Lord Baden-Powell.”

In 2013, Emily Suber, then NC Synod Council Evangelical Lutheran Church in America president wrote, “In 1908, two years before the Boy Scouts of America organization was officially chartered in the United States in 1910 by Lord Robert Baden-Powell of England, Dr. Bell received a charter from Lord Baden-Powell and established Troop 2 at St. Matthew’s as one of the earliest Boy Scout troops in the country. The first scoutmaster was Aubrey Mauney. The troop was later renamed Troop 91 and under the spirited leadership of Falls over

This year, the average annual premiums for an employer-sponsored insurance plan for an individual were slightly more than $6,000.

Just two years ago, Medicaid spent an average of $6,641 per person covered.

Medicaid is a jointly funded Federal-State health insurance program for low-income and needy people. It covers children, the aged, blind, and/or disabled and other people who are eligible to receive federally

attitudes are able to propel us forward with fierce precision, or keep us in a self-defeating mindset.

What Do We Need To Do So Our Circumstances Won’t Determine Our Attitude?

As a classroom teacher, I required my students to memorize and recite inspirational poems to set the tone of our class for that day, and to encourage them to be the best that they could be. One of my favorite poems was called “Watch” by Frank Outlaw, creator of the successful US supermarket chain, “BI-LO”.

Here is that poem: Watch your thoughts, they become words; Watch your words, they become actions; Watch your actions, they

become habits; Watch your habits, they become character; Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.

The advice to WATCH our thoughts, words, actions, habits, and character is the first step to ensuring that life conditions don’t shape or break us. Likewise, Proverbs 4:23 urges us to guard and carefully pay attention to our thoughts. This is because our life is shaped by our thoughts and affections. In other words, we need to think about what we are thinking about. Periodic check-ups from the neck up can assist us in controlling our response to our day to day happenings. If our perspective is causing us to be negative and unsuccessful in areas, then it’s time to change our way of thinking! Ephesians

Page 5A 4:23 states, “Be renewed in the spirit of your mind.”

Methods I Frequently Use To Stay On Top Of My Attitudes: 1. Feed my mind with scriptures from the Bible 2. Be intentional about evaluating my personal views and judging if they are helping or hurting me.

3. Take a moment to readjust what I am zeroing in on.

Flip it to make it more empowering and productive.

The following quote really hits the bull’s eye on PERSPECTIVE: “We can complain because rose bushes have thorns or we can rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.”

■ LIFESTYLES

Nutcracker Ballet celebrates 10th anniversary in KM

By Loretta Cozart Jason and Kimberla Burrows moved to Kings Mountain from central Pennsylvania 20 years ago and started their family. Kimberla works for a private agency helping families adopt children from the foster care system and Jason works as a supervisor for the Social Security Administration. But Kimberla’s passion has always been for ballet.

Kimberla was born and raised in Pennsylvania where she was trained in classical ballet from a young age. She joined Williamsport Civic Ballet Company at the age of 10 and danced in numerous ballet productions. After graduating high school, she attended Allentown College of St. Francais de Salles where she majored in dance.

After college she traveled to New York City where she took classes from Dick Andros, renowned choreographer, dancer and teacher. She taught ballet for several years in Pennsylvania prior to moving to North Carolina.

“Where we come from, ballet was a really big thing,” Jason said. “Kimberla realized there was a need for a ballet school in the community and has been teaching in Kings Mountain ever since. The support from the community allows Kimberla to share her passion of ballet with these students. This is a mission for her, and she loves watching a dancer, once fraught with anxiety, become the star performer.”

So, in her spare time, Kimberla began ballet at the Kings Mountain Family YMCA. In August each year, auditions begin for The Nutcracker Ballet which are open to surrounding studios so anyone who wishes to participate can do so. They also offer scholarships. Every Saturday between August and December, dancers practice at the YMCA. The first year’s performance was held at Patterson

HOLIDAY STUFFING 1 (7.5 ounce) package dry cornbread mix 1 cup butter 2 onions, chopped 1 green bell pepper, chopped 6 stalks celery, chopped 1 pound pork sausage 16 slices white bread 2 teaspoons dried sage 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1 tsp. poultry seasoning 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley 2 eggs 4 cups chicken stock Prepare corn bread as directed on package. Cool, and crumble.

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook onions, bell pepper, and celery in butter until tender, but not brown. In another pan, cook sausage over medium-high heat until evenly browned.

Place corn bread and bread slices in a food processor. Pulse until they turn into a crumbly mixture. Transfer mixture to a large bowl. Season with sage, thyme, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix in chopped parsley, cooked vegetables, and sausage with drippings.

Stir in eggs and chicken stock.

This mixture should be a bit mushy. Transfer to a greased 9x13 inch pan.

Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour.

CRANBERRY SAUCE 1 cup frozen cranberry juice concentrate, thawed 1/3 cup white sugar

Grove Baptist Church. The second year, the ballet moved to Don Gibson Theater. The third year they moved to the Joy Performance Theater, where it has remained for the last six years.

Kimberla adds, “The City of Kings Mountain has been very supportive. In particular, the partnerships with the YMCA and Kings Mountain Little Theater have been amazing. None of this would have been possible without those partnerships. We couldn’t do this on our own. Businesses have been supportive, letting us put up signs promoting the shows. Parents help us in countless ways, they are always very generous. Everyone has been great to us.”

Over time, The Nutcracker has become a family affair for the Burrows. Both Kimberla and their daughter, Lindsay, have participated from the beginning. When asked if he dances, Jason replied, “I am a participant, but nobody wants to see me dance.”

Son, Nick, has participated for six years. He is an athlete, participating in football and discus in high school. When asked to describe his role in the performance, he said, “I just do the heavy lifting,” alluding to his job lifting the ballerinas throughout the ballet. This year he has roles as a Party Guest, Arabian, Mouse King and Cavalier. His favorite role is The Mouse King and enjoys the fight scenes.

Countless dancers have participated in this community ballet over the last decade. Bethany London is in her seventh year, starting as a supporting member and taking on larger roles as her skills developed. This year she has rolls as a Doll, Arabian, Guardian Angel, Sugar Plum Fairy and is in the Snow Scene. “Ballet is often stereotyped as boring.

But it’s fun and exciting. It is enjoyable to watch and to do,” she said.

Both Nick and Bethany agree that their favorite shows are the three performed for

1 (12 ounce) package fresh cranberries, rinsed 1/2 cup dried cranberries 3 tablespoons orange marmalade 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice 2 teaspoons minced orange peel 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice Stir the cranberry juice concentrate and sugar together in a saucepan over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved.

Mix in the fresh and dried cranberries, reduce heat to medium, and cook until the dried cranberries soften and the fresh ones pop, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat.

Mix in the orange marmalade, orange juice, orange peel, and allspice until thoroughly combined. Allow the cranberry sauce to cool completely. Pour into glass serving dish, cover, and chill until cold, at least 2 hours. Can be made up to 2 days ahead of time and refrigerated until serving.

SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE 5 sweet potatoes 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup butter 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon 1/2 cup white sugar 2 TBSP. heavy cream 1/4 cup butter, softened 3 TBSP. all-purpose flour 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar 1/2 cup chopped pecans Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

local elementary schools. “I always like the school shows, because you get an immediate reaction. Adults might hold back a little bit,” Nick said.

Bethany adds, “Kids are really easy to entertain and if you mess up, they don’t really care.

Their reactions are unfiltered.”

Each year the performance changes just a little with costumes, backdrops, sets and choreography. “It’s the same story, but not the same production,” Kimberla explains. In the upcoming weeks, the Burrows will move the costumes and set pieces to the Joy Performance Theater for their 10th anniversary performances.

The Nutcracker Ballet is a beautiful holiday tradition taking great skill, concentration, athleticism, and years of

The brailler is a braille typewriter with a key corresponding to each of the six dots of the braille code, a space key, a backspace key, and a line space key and Huntlee has asked for one for Christmas.

Last Saturday, American Legion riders, with the support of American Legion Post 155 and American Auxiliary Unit 155 raised money for that purpose.

At 9 am, American Legion Auxiliary members had a bake sale and breakfast to contribute to the cause. Hot biscuits and coffee welcomed the Legion Riders to registration.

New American Legion Auxiliary member Kim Sexton baked most of the baked goods for sale. Legion Riders ordered cakes in advance for premium prices. Her Kentucky Butter Cake was a crowd favorite.

BBB warns Secret Sister gift exchange illegal Better Business Bureau reminds consumers that the online “Secret Sister” gift exchange, and similar invitations are illegal, and should be ignored.

The campaign, which was first big in 2015, has again been circulating on social media sites, particularly on Facebook.

The post claims that participants will receive up to 36 gifts in exchange for sending one gift valued at $10. Users are encouraged to invite others to participate in the holiday gift exchange, where they will receive information on where to mail gifts. But there is one big problem with gift chains like “Secret Sister” – they are pyramid schemes.

The U.S. Postal Inspection Services says that gift exchanges are illegal gambling and that

participants could be subject to penalties for mail fraud. Pyramid schemes are illegal, either by mail or on social media, if money or other items of value are requested with assurance of a sizeable return for those who participate. The laws are similar in Canada, where pyramid schemes are illegal.

Here is how this scheme works: If a consumer purchases one gift for a stranger, she will receive as many as 36 gifts in return. This type of gift exchange may seem reasonable enough in theory: six friends invite six more friends, who all send gifts to the participant in spot 1 before that person’s named is removed.

This process repeats itself with the participant in the 2 spot, and so on.

Of course, starting this

gift exchange comes with a catch – you need to disclose your personal information, such as your home address.

If you receive a chain letter by mail, email, or social media, especially one that involves money or gifts, ignore it. Report the post to Facebook by clicking on the three little dots in the upper right corner of the post.

Round 2: Mountaineers at Statesville Friday The going gets tougher Friday night when Kings Mountain’s Mountaineers travel to Statesville to take on the Greyhounds in the second round of the state 3A playoffs.

Statesville, with 17 starters back from last year’s team that lost to the Mountaineers in the second round, has been spectacular in running up a perfect 12-0 record and repeating as North Piedmont Conference champions.

In 12 games, they’ve amassed over 5,000 yards of total offense. Their only

close game – for the second year in a row – was a 27-24 overtime win over West Rowan for the conference championship.

They have piled up the points with those 27 against West Rowan being their lowest total of the season.

They have weapons all over the field, led by big southpaw quarterback Nabanye Moore with 2,403 yards passing and 22 TDs; senior running back Caylon Imes with 1,321 yards and 18 touchdowns, and receivers Jasaih Gathings and Ky’wan Dukes wit 1,035;

and 770 yards, respectively.

Fans who attended last year’s game will remember most of those guys, especially Moore who will be the best quarterback the Mountaineers have faced.

“They’re very strong in all three levels of the game,” says Mountaineer Coach Greg Lloyd. “What really stands out to me is that they are very big. They’re strong in all three levels. They have excellent receivers, one of if not the best we’ll see. We will have to be on our A game to have a shot.

KM routs West Henderson 56-7 in opening round of 3A playoffs When Kings Mountain’s clicking on all cylinders, not many teams can stay with them.

That was certainly true Friday night at West Henderson, when in just a matter of minutes at the end of the first half and beginning of the second half the Mountaineers turned a reasonably close game into a rout and a 56-7 victory in the opening round of the state 3A playoffs.

The win was the 10th for the Mountaineers this year and their fourth double-digit win total in the last five years. It was also the 100th win here for Coach Greg Lloyd, who now has 116 including two years at East Gaston.

Coach Lloyd said it was one of – if not the best games the Mountaineers have played.

“I was really pleased in all three phases of the game,” he said. “We were ready to play. We had a great week of preparation.

“We got off to a good start and controlled the line of scrimmage on both sides.

“I thought our play on offense, kick coverage and defense was outstanding.

I was pleased with all of those groups. It was one of our better games.”

Although the Mountain-

Taking over with 4:56 on the first half clock, the Mountaineers shook off 20 yards in penalties to drive 56 yards to score on a threeyard run by Ricaylen Mack, who would finish with his most impressive showing of the season with 166 yards

rushing and three touchdowns, all in the first half.

“Ricaylen had his best game,” noted Coach Lloyd.

“He’s worked his way back and is a hundred percent.

He will give us a big lift the rest of the season. The line blocked well. I thought DJ Bagwell had a big game as well as our tight ends, Bryce Fisher and Orlando Odums.”

With just 1:56 left in the half, the Mountaineer defense held the Falcons to three and out, with the ball changing hands with 35 sec-

onds remaining. It took just six of those seconds to score as Ethan Reid hit Kobe Paysour wide open down the KM sideline for a 35-7 halftime lead.

The kickoff team got into the act to produce two quick touchdowns to begin the second half, running the score to 49-7 and putting the running clock rule into effect.

First, West fumbled the second half kickoff and KM’s Chris Ruffalo recovered it at the West 19. Three plays later Reid scored from

Then, West fumbled the following kickoff with James Ussery recovering it at the 10:35 mark to set up a three-play, 15-yard drive ending on Rashaard Brooks’ three-yard run.

Senior running back Albert Hope got the final KM TD with 3:35 left on a 37yard run.

Before the onslaught began, the Mountaineers

took the opening kickoff 48 yards in six plays with Reid hitting Brooks from 12 yards out at the 9:56 mark of the first quarter. Along the way, Bryce Fisher caught a six-yard pass for a first down and Brooks and Luke Bishop had first down runs of 10 and 16 yards, respectively.

PLAYOFFS From Page 1B run by Paysour put the Mountaineers on the West 14 but the West defense hunkered down and forced a 39-yard field goal attempt, which was wide left.

Moments later, though, the Falcons fumbled on their own 26 and Mack scored three plays later from 19 yards out for a 14-0 lead.

KM’s only turnover of the night – a pass interception and 30-yard return to the KM 20 – put the Falcons in position to score their lone TD. On a first and goal from the nine, Austin Jenkins went off tackle to near the goal line and fumbled, but West lineman Jaron Pittman recovered it in the end zone for the TD, cutting the score to 14-7.

ROUND 2 From Page 1B “We can’t let them get in the clear,” he added. “We have to slow down their running game. We have to try to make them one di-

20 following a 15-yard penalty and kickoff, the Mountaineers got a 41-yard burst off tackle by Mack for a first down at the West 39 but one of their many first half penalties pushed them back to the 48. Paysour took a quick out pass from Reid to the West 26, and an unsportsmanlike penalty call against the hosts put KM at the 11 with a first and 10. Mack carried twice for the touchdown to run the score to 21-7 and basically put the win in the bag.

With reserves from both teams in the game after KM’s barrage of points to end the first half and begin the second, West didn’t pick up another first down except for a 15-yard penalty against the Mountaineers. For the game, the Falcons had only two first downs with the first being on a 10-yard reception by Austin Jenkins to set up

their lone TD. The KM defense had one of its best overall nights of the season, holding the Falcons to just eight yards rushing on 30 attempts. Ten of their runs went for minus 31 yards, and nine for zero yards.

Their biggest gain on the ground was Jenkins’ nineyard run that resulted in their lone score.

“I thought freshman AJ Richardson had a lot of tackles, and Day-Day Wilson had a lot,” Coach Lloyd noted. “All of the guys on defense were outstanding. I thought our special teams were outstanding, too. It was the best job we’ve done covering kicks. James Ussery made a bunch of tackles.

Everybody swarmed to the ball. That’s as good as we’ve played.”

mensional. Last year they hurt us with their passing.

We’ve got to get them to third down and get them off the field. Their special teams concern me, too.”

Lloyd said the Mountaineers probably played their best game of the season last week, but they will have to

play even better this week.

“Offensively, we have to keep doing what we’ve been doing – spread the ball around and take what they give us,” he said. “It ought to be a great game. We have to keep our composure and play our best game.”

Bagwell attends George Washington Teacher Institute

By Loretta Cozart Each year, hundreds of people apply to attend the George Washington Teacher Institute (GWTI), but only 20 are selected. This year, Windy Bagwell received her golden ticket to attend the institute.

“To say that I am extremely humbled by the experience is an understatement. Not to mention that I am only one of seven teachers from North Carolina that have ever been chosen for this opportunity,” Bagwell told the Herald last week.

The George Washington Teacher Institute Residential Programs are immersive professional development programs designed for K-12 educators to teach about the life, leadership, and legacy of George Washington and the 18th-century world in which he lived. Participants in each program learn on-site at Washington's home, Mount Vernon and the Fred W. Smith National Library for the Study of George Washington.

Each Institute session features a lead scholar, as well as numerous guest speakers and Mount Vernon experts and includes i n-depth and inclusive content and primary source analysis, immersive 18th-century experiences with historical interpreters and subject matter experts, engaged collaboration with visiting scholars, fellow participants, and Mount Vernon staff, classroom applicability including technology integration and connections between historical events and contemporary student experiences.

The topic of this year’s institute was Washington at War. Sarah Purcell was the lead scholar and holds a Ph.D from Brown University and currently is on the faculty of Grinnell College in Iowa. She is passionate about the American Revolution education and has written several books, including a U.S. History textbook-American Horizons.

NORTH CAROLINA CLEVELAND COUNTY IN THE GENERAL COURT OF JUSTICE DISTRICT COURT DIVISION 19 CVD 1815 THE CHARLOTTEMECKLENBURG HOSPITAL AUTHORITY D/B/A ATRIUM HEALTH, Plaintiff, V. JAMES CONRAD POWELL, Defendant NOTICE OF SERVICE OF PROCESS

BY PUBLICATION To: James Conrad Powell, the above named defendant: Take notice that a pleading seeking relief against you has been filed in the above entitled action. The nature of the relief being sought is as follows: The Plaintiff Charlotte-Mecklenburg Hospital Authority d/b/a Atrium Health has filed a complaint seeking damages for money owed.

You are sought to make defense to such pleading not later than forty (40) days after November 20, 2019, (exclusive of said date) and upon your failure to do so, the party seeking service against you will apply to the Court for the relief sought.

This 13th day of November, 2019.

Purcell presented topics on Washington in the Seven Years War and the Imperial Crisis along with the Revolutionary War, sessions on soldiers, women, Chastellux and Lafayette, Washington in his New Nation, and using primary sources to teach Washington and the Revolutionary War. “We also received a private tour of Mount Vernon, visited the Library at Mount Vernon and spent some time viewing documents, explored the Lives Bound Together Exhibit at Mount Vernon which explored the lives of the enslaved during Washington's time, and participated in a private tour of Washington's Old Town Alexandria. We also ate dinner at the Historic Gadby's Tavern, which was a neat experience,” said Bagwell.

Other topics and presenters included: *George Washington in Command by Charles Neimeyer who began his Marine Corps career in 1976. He served on the Military Staff at the White House under George H. W. Bush and William J. Clinton. He has taught at the U.S. Naval Academy and Naval War College and has served as the Director and Chief of Marine Corps History, Quantico, Virginia. *African Americans in the Revolutionary War by Adrienne Whaley who serves as the Senior Manager of K-12 Education at the Museum of the American Revolution. *Mount Vernon Before, During, and After the Revolution was given by Mary Thompson who has worked at Mount Vernon since 1980.

She has authored several books about Washington and currently is the Research Historian at Mount Vernon. *Maeve Kane presented The American Revolution in Iroquoia and other Indigenous Homelands. Ms. Kane is a professor at the University at Albany, State University of New York where she focuses on Native American History.

Alumni have additional obligations, including participation in future residence programs. Bagwell must also conduct a minimum of one teacher professional development session following the Institute, with the goal being to share what she’s learned with teachers beyond your team and/or school within the next

year.

“I know this is so much more than what you need, but I could really go on for days,” said Bagwell. It is good she is excited for the opportunity and the knowledge gained, considering she’ll be sharing this experience with her students in the upcoming months and years to come.

Career and Technical Education students honored On Tuesday, November 12, 2019 Cleveland County Schools held its induction ceremony of the Career and Technical Education Honor Society (CTEHS) at Malcolm Brown Auditorium for 155 high school seniors. CTEHS recognizes the achievements of outstanding students in Career and Technical Education. Crest, Burns, Shelby, and Kings Mountain High Schools inducted new members and awarded honor cords to the seniors.

win scholarships offered only through CTEHS. Tristan Blanton was the KMHS-CTE scholarship winner for 2019. These students will again be recognized during each high school’s awards day and graduation ceremonies. CTEHS members will wear their purple and white honor cords at graduation.

The officers for the KMHS chapter of CTEHS for the 2019-2020 school year include: President, Summer Campbell and Vice-President, Summer Deaton. KMHS-CTEHS Advisor is Robin Spicer.

KMHS honored at NCTC High School Play Festival The Theatre Department at Kings Mountain High School is celebrating after being honored at the 2019 NCTC High School Play Festival, held at the Blumenthal Performing Arts at Spirit Square on November 8 - 9. The theatre program, led by Heather Achter, presented How to Kill a Mockingbird at the festival, and brought home the following awards: Festival Spirit Award Theatre Arts Award: Excellence in Stage Business Barbizon Outstanding Achievement in Design & Production: Stage Management to Sara Brooks Barbizon Excellence in Design & Production: Design/Crew Leadership to Clinton Wells Barbizon Excellence in Design & Production: Design/Crew Leadership to Nick Falls.

This year, 3,000 students from 87 schools are performing 121 plays at 8 regional sites. The top 16 productions are invited to perform at the NCTC State High School Play Festival, November 21 - 22 at Greensboro College.

Participating schools travel to their regional festival sites with theatrical sets, costumes, and props.

Each show loads in to a 10’x10’ backstage area.

When their time comes, each school group has 45-minutes to set up, perform the play, and clear the stage. Following their performance, students receive feedback from professional actors and directors with Broadway and Hollywood credits.

Awards are given for acting, design, technical craft, ensemble work, and festival spirit.

“The atmosphere at the

Play Festival is positive and exciting, and students are filled with energy as they watch shows, learn from their peers and make new theatre friends,” said NCTC Executive Director Angie Hays.

For over 30 years, the NCTC High School Play Festival has strengthened arts education in schools by bringing curriculum to life, challenging students to do their very best work, and contributing to the development of future audiences for live performing arts. The program was named one of the “Top High School Theatre Festivals” by Stage Directions Magazine. It is the largest high school theatre event in the Southeast and has been replicated in 9 other states.
