Coach Bruce Koopman

Welcome Back!

I hope everyone had a relaxing Spring Break and a safe break one too!

I took the family to Florida and had a good time. I went fishing and had some success. My son Jarrett and I caught some Spanish Mackerel and Pompano two very good eating fish according to the Florida fishing wise. Jarrett caught a very nice Red fish too. While in Florida I seen some Dolphins and Sea Turtles. On Wednesday the family and I went to watch the Blue Angels train and it was terrific. If you are ever in the Pensacola area visit the National Naval Aviation Museum. and watch the Blue Angels train. It is free and absolutely impressive. The Blue Angels are virtually right in front and over your head when the train. The museum is there as well, all at the Pensacola Naval Base! A must see!!!1

Wow 9 and a 1/2 weeks left of school! Seniors only have 5 weeks or 25 days of school.This is not counting the Senior Trip.

Advance Shop- Like I mentioned above seniors only have 25 days of school. They need to get projects done and paid for prior to them (students) being done and the project going home. This week I will go about setting goals with each student in advance shop and how we/ they need to meet that goal through out the week. Parents help me by encouraging your son/daughter to get focused  on their project so it gets done and paid for before the end of the school year. Make sure all checks are made out to "McBain High School".

General Shop- Down to the home stretch! A reminder that all nighstands cost $75.00 and it needs to be paid in full prior to the project going home. General shop students please make sure all checks are made out to "McBain High School". There have been some very nice projects made this year using different woods and I think parents will be pleasantly surprised. Students once done with their nighstand will have to finish the year with a smaller project or a start a bigger one and work on it coming next year.

High School P.E-  Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are back to Physical Fitness days!  Tuesdays and Thursdays are going to continue to be activity days. Some students are not passing simply because they are not dressing and/or participating! Again each day is worth 20 points!
