Pendleton Duo Place 2nd in Stock Mkt Game |
|
Congratulations to the Pendleton team of Josh Eimer and Sten
Kadji for earning a second place victory in the Florida high school division of
The Stock Market Game™. The
students competed against 455 other teams in the State of Florida for the Fall
2009-2010 session.
The Stock Market Game™ is a national financial literacy
program and a trademark of the Foundation for Investor Education, a nonprofit
organization that gives educators an innovative tool to use with elementary,
middle, and high school students. Participating in a live trading simulation, students
learn about the stock market, how to invest, how to assess overall conditions
by reading real news reports, and how the market affects various other aspects
of life. They start with a virtual cash account of $100,000 and work in teams
to develop the best-performing portfolio.
Josh and Sten will receive certificates from the Foundation,
recognizing their impressive achievement among high schools in the State of Florida.

Congratulations AGAIN to Laetitia Beck! |
|
This article was written by student, Seiji Liu, for the Pendleton Panther student newsletter:
 The 2010 Verizon Junior Heritage came to a close yesterday with Pendleton’s own Laetitia Beck as the individual girls’ division champion. She posted scores of 73 and 74 for a 147 total. Laetitia avenged her playoff loss last year to U.S. No.1 Alexis Thompson by beating her by 2 shots this year. This prestigious and elite invitation only field annually is ranked among the top 7 events nationally. It is always contested under brutally cold and windy conditions on 2 extreme tests of golf. It is played in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina at the Sea Pines Resort. The courses used are the Ocean Course for Round 1 and the world famous Harbor Town Golf Links for the 2nd round. The day before the event a heavy storm passed through that dropped massive amounts of rain on the two courses. The fairways wouldn’t give up any yardage to the courses that were already set up to PGA Tour pin positions and conditions.Harbor Town Golf Links is the site of the PGA Tour’s Verizon Heritage Classic that is contested annually in April. The Ocean Course played to a rating of 74.1 on a par of 72 and Harbor Town played to a rating of 75.1 with a extremely high slope of 146 on a par of 71.
Beck shot a 73 in the first round amid 30 mph winds and 35 degree weather to take the lead. In the second round, Beck made a birdie on the difficult opening tenth hole and never fell behind her rival Alexis Thompson.
Beck is ranked No. 8 in the country according to the Golfweek National Rankings and has committed to play golf for Duke University this coming fall.
Other IMG players at the event:
Boys: Seiji Liu took 12th place. Zhong Yang Fu 20th place. Tanapol Vattanapisit 28th place.
Girls: Tanaporn Kongkiatkrai 16th place. Hally Leadbetter 25th place.

There is no shortage of efforts on the Pendleton/IMGA campus to help the victims of the Haitian earthquake. Students, faculty, and staff alike are planning and participating in activities to raise money for the Haitian Relief Effort:
- Elementary School students raised $2,500 for the American Red Cross in a Hop-a-thon fundraiser; student Katie Forsyth was top hopper with 370 jump-rope jumps in 3 minutes and Lyla Dowhie was the top fundraiser bringing in $336.
- English teacher, Sandra Barton, took on extra work for two weeks and then donated the earnings ($1,056) to the HÔpital Albert Schweitzer in Deschelles, Haiti.
- Inspired by Sandra Barton's action, the Pendleton faculty and staff aim to at least match her $1,056 donation as a group by contributing their own money towards a collective fund that will then be forwarded to the HÔpital Albert Schweitzer in Deschelles, Haiti.
- You can find blue barrels at several locations on campus as collection spots for the Haiti Relief Fund Drive sponsored by IMG Academies. Particularly requested are jars of peanut butter and canned beans.
- Students donate $5 on Dress Down Friday for the privilege of not having to wear their Pendleton uniform. They are asked to wear the color red to signify support for Haiti.
- The History/Current Events students of teacher Charlie Kennedy and the elementary students are teaming up for Kickball for Haiti. For a small donation of one dollar, students and staff will be able to take 3 turns trying to kick the ball past the dedicated All-Star kickball field team.
“I have always held firmly to the thought that each one of us can do a little to bring some portion of misery to an end.”
Albert Schweitzer
