This seems like a reasonable statement, however that is not what President Obama has been encouraging throughout his speeches.

When walking into the local Walmart, it’s hard not to notice the pre-cut vegetable aisles, pre-made dinner refrigerators, and even large fast food chains within the superstore. Because made-to-go-food is accessible to us at all hours of the day, many choose to eat these convenient and easy meals.

On Sunday, Mar. 26, NCHS will host the annual scholarship drive where students go door to door to raise money for scholarships that will send their classmates to college. While all contributions, including those from businesses and families, are appreciated, student involvement can make or break the program. To get involved, students can sign up at a table in the cafeteria from Mar. 20-24. A ‘pep-rally’ will also be held on the 24th and is meant to encourage kids to come out and help raise more money each year.
