Reuther student's Doodle 4 Google entry wins best in state!
​Reuther Middle School student Breena Keller is the Michigan winner of the Doodle 4 Google competition, a national contest for K-12 students to create a Google Doodle, incorporating their personal artwork into the letters in the Google logo.
Google representatives surprised Keller at a May 3 school assembly, where all her seventh-grade classmates received a t-shirt with her design, based on the theme, "What inspires me." As a state winner, her doodle will be featured in the online Doodle 4 Google gallery. Reuther faculty members were also invited to a free afterschool Teacher Sandbox Workshop, hosted by Google.
​Keller now moves on to the next round of competition where five state/territory winners will be selected as national finalists. Keller fans can vote for her creation beginning in late May, when all 53 contenders will be posted at https://doodles.google.com/d4g/. Keller could potentially advance to the national level of the competition, making her eligible for a scholarship, a trip to Google Headquarters in California, a technology grant for her school, and the chance to have her creation featured as an interactive experience on Google.com.

8th Grade Band Travels to Chicago!
thank you 7th Grade Mentors!
Back in December, our 7th Grade Student Mentors proposed a project to inspire and motivate their fellow students. Their project involved painting all 6 student restrooms different colors and adding a motivational quote to each. The students and their teachers, Ms. Moore, Mr. Kerr and Ms. Steffes chose the colors and the quotes and with the generous donation of paint and expertise from one of our parents, Mr. Miller, painted all of the restrooms during our Holiday Break. With the design help of Mrs. Mainero and the painting expertise of Ms. Moore and Mrs. Hoekstra, the restroom project in not only complete--it's beautiful. Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen for our Reuther Community!
