Everyone has a favorite color. But did you know that your favorite color symbolizes your personality? Even the clothes that we wear, and the items that we own almost always have our favorite colors in them. Shirts, pants, phone cases, and Hydroflasks sometimes come in our own favorite color.
According to Jenni Pyle, Chadron Public School's nurse, who's favorite color is blue, she likes the color blue because it is a happy color and it is "cool and calming."
Colors can also symbolize our personality. For example, if one person's favorite color is black, that symbolize that they are shy. Amber Yellowhorse, a Chadron High student, who's favorite color is indigo, said that her color represents her mixed emotions. Blue is a popular color because it usually symbolizes happy, sad, or calm. Diamond Little Thunder's favorite color is blue because, "It symbolizes my personality very well.
Most items have a color option, and they sometimes have our favorite colors on them. A student in Chadron High, who's name is Cloey Murdock, mentioned that her items have a little bit of her favorite color, which is yellow.
Our favorite colors can also be very special. One student in Chadron High, Diamond Little Thunder, said she liked the color blue because, "It is everywhere."

Chadron High's Piñatas
The students in Mrs. Noble's Spanish class created their own piñatas and hung them in the high school's halls.
According to Mrs. Noble, piñatas represent an old Mexican tradition held primarily in Mexico. They are usually created around Christmas time or anytime there is a special event in the family.
Noble said, "The first step to creating a piñata is to use paper mache to form a figure or an animal, person or object. Then gather colorful tissue and glue it to the piñata. Lastly, let the piñata dry for a for a few hours. To be able to hang it on a wall or off of a ceiling, put a hook on the top and a string through it which is optional. These are the steps that students took in order to make their own piñata in Mrs. Noble's Spanish class."
According to Mrs. Noble, The process to form, glue, and dry can take from one to one and a half weeks to finish.
After the students are finished with their piñata, they hang them in the halls of Chadron High and later choose whether they want to keep them or not.
Aliyah Mills and Kaylee Hughs made a piñata in Mrs. Noble's class. The piñata they created was of Patrick from the popular kid's tv show, "Spongebob Squarepants." Aliyah stated that it was a difficult project to complete. After they can take it down from the halls, they plan to keep it and take it home.

Some members of the Future Business Leaders of America, or FBLA club, at Chadron High School helped at the annual Community Hospital Dinner at the Assumption Arena at 5:30 p.m. on November 1.
Renae Noble, the FBLA advisor, said it was put on to show the "appreciation of employees" and show that the hospital employees "recognize service." It was also put on to fundraise for Circle of Light, which is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to help cancer patients and their families. Employees and their families attended the dinner.

The FBLA members got paid a total of $200. Noble says that the money is split between the students that helped at the dinner and put into their FBLA accounts so they could "use the money accordingly."

Androids Vs. iPhones
Lots of people have phones to communicate, but there are different brands of phones. There are iPhones, which some people prefer, and Androids, which other people really like.
According to Diamond Little Thunder, who has a Samsung J3, she kind of likes Androids better because they have "more storage than iPhones." But the downsides of some Androids is "not being able to use the apps effectively," said Mrs. Williamson, the Chadron High secretary.
iPhones are much different than Androids. Some people would much rather prefer iPhones over Androids. They are less complicated to use, and they are "fast," stated Norah Winckler, a Chadron High freshman. But one major downfall of iPhones is that "they are terribly expensive," said Chadron High nurse Jenni Pyle.
There are so many phones ranging from iPhones to Androids that help us in our daily lives. But, those phones can also be very expensive. According to Mrs. Williamson, "Androids are less expensive than iPhones."
Some people don't know the prices of today's smartphones. Jenni Pily, a Chadron High nurse, stated that she has no guess as to what the prices of Androids and iPhones are.

FBLA Chili Feed
FBLA will be hosting their annual Chili Feed fundraiser in the commons this Friday, October 23, at the Chadron football game from 5:00 pm until half-time.
According to FBLA sponsor Mrs. Noble, tickets are $5.00 and can be purchased from any FBLA member or at the door. For one ticket you will be provided 1 bowl of chili, homemade dessert, and drink.
The profits made go directly to the students to pay for their dues or help pay for state and nationals if the tickets are bought from the student, Mrs. Noble said. If the ticket is bought at the door, that money goes into the FBLA general fund which is used to pay for chapter items, reported Mrs. Noble.
Mrs. Noble said, "The chili feed can be very profitable if students sell tickets." According to Mrs. Noble, the students normally collectively make between $1,500-$2,000.

Cardinlas win Valentine volleyball tournament
The Chadron volleyball team traveled to Valentine for a tournament on Saturday, October 19th. They played Cozad, Ainsworth, Valentine and Gordon-Rushville winning all four matches. Bringing their record to 24-5.
The team beat all four teams in two or three sets. They beat Cozad in two, 25-11, 25-18, Ainsworth with two, 25-13, 25-15, GRHS with two, 25-15, 25-11. But the Valentine game took the the girls three sets to take the win, 25-19, 18-25, and 25-13.
The Cardinals had new competition except for Gordon-Rushville who they have faced before and defeated them. According to Coach Blakelee Hoffman GRHS is struggling more in October than they did in September to get a win.
Coach Hoffman said the team had a great day and some players may have stood out more than others, but overall they all contributed and played consistent.
With Cozad being a 1-24 team the girls did not play down to their level, said Hoffman. Most of those matches are very slow paced but the girls stayed consistent with their serve/pass game. The Valentine game was a lot tougher for the girls, but they ended up taking the win. The second set was won by Valentine when they got an early lead on the Cardinals.
Coach Hoffman said, "I was happy with how some of the younger girls played." The young girls had an opportunity to play a higher game than they're used to (their playing time was against Ainsworth and Cozad). The only weakness they had was when Valentine took that second set from them but that didn't take their momentum away, said Hoffman.
Coach Hoffman said, "This is a major lull in our schedule, especially with Hot Springs the following Monday. If anything, its good for our girls to rest their bodies and really prepare for Alliance and Sub-Districts."
