Look Out! Headless Horseman Hayride 2009

By Isabella

Calling all Middle Schoolers!!! The haunted hayride is coming up, and it's going to be very scary. Click on the link below to see just how scary. For all the students who are not in Middle School, this is for you too. I've heard that it gets more scary every day. The sixth, seventh and eighth graders are going on the night of Friday Oct. 23. We'll be traveling to Ulster County, NY. Hopefully we won't have to leave early like last year!

Welcome Back to School--and a New Cougar Times!

Dear every child in the Garrison School,

We are the new staff of the Cougar Times for the 2009-2010 school year. We'd like to introduce ourselves:

Lana, 8th grade, Art & Design Director

"I am new to the Garrison School district and am now a part of the school blog. I love to write. I hope to make the blog really interesting for everyone in the whole school to read."

Isabella, 7th grade, News & Features Editor

"Hey. I have never blogged before so this is my first time. I am writing for our school online newspaper. I am interested in blogging because I can say what's on my mind and share with everyone. My goal is to have more people look at the site."

Emily, 7th grade, Polls & Gadgets Editor

"Hello! I just started to blog. This is my first blog. I have always loved writing, and I especially love writing about current events. This interests me because I love to write. I would like to inform people about the school and other current events such as sports, youth center events and field trips."

Spencer, 7th grade, Sports & Entertainment Editor

"Hi. I'm a new member of the Garrison School journalism community. I really have no idea why I signed up for this elective other than the fact that it looked very interesting. I hope that by the end of this year more people will read the blog. I will bring more fun ideas to the blog like music reviews and other cool stuff."
