SOCCER: It was a tough loss for the Northeast Soccer Team on Tuesday this week. They fought hard in the first half. Izeahvian Benetiz, Emily Alter, Brian Sebring, Justin Park, Jonathan Rosario-Pena, Shane Burk Barry, and Mikyel Finely were phenomenal in assisting their teammates and keeping Whitehall on their toes the first half. Only down 2-0 at halftime, the Hornets tried in the second half to tie it up. Unfortunately, the game ran away from them, but the Hornet Soccer team kept their heads high. Keep up the hard work. Please come out the next few weeks for the Northeast Soccer team playing at home. Go Hornets!

THOUGHT OF THE DAY: Most of you have probably seen a mosaic at some time in your life. Can you picture a mosaic? It’s a beautiful design made up of many small pieces of colored glass or stone. Individual pieces are carefully placed side by side until together they form a beautiful work of art. Former President Jimmy Carter believes that Americans, living side by side, form a beautiful mosaic of human beings. Listen to his words: We [are] not a melting pot, but a beautiful mosaic – different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams. Without all our different colors, shapes, sizes, religions and philosophies; our nation wouldn’t be as beautiful or as powerful. Today, think about the beautiful mosaic of human beings living in America.
