Before Saturday’s home opener, the Walton CSD football team celebrated coaches Jim Hoover and Gary Backus for being part of the program for 50 years. The duo has been part of the program since 1976.

Hoover, who is Section Four’s all-time winningest football coach with 318 victories, has served as an assistant to son Adam Hoover since he retired as the head coach following the 2016 season.On Saturday, Hoover and Backus were surrounded by families, including their children, grandchildren and many former players, fellow coaches, and fans.

During the celebration, they had an “Orange Crush” toast as well as a meet-and-greet event following the game. At that reception, many photos and other items were on display. They also received a plaque, and a custom helmet, which will be on display at the school, and there were commemorative t-shirts handed out. Prior to the game, the national anthem was performed by their granddaughters.

Congratulations to both for this amazing milestone!

Earlier this week, students in Mrs. Rosa’s AP Biology class were asked to determine if the presence of a gall affected the growth of goldenrod. After examining the plants, each group formulated an experimental question, made their hypothesis, and then collected data in order to answer their question.

Students continued their study by performing statistical tests and presenting their findings to their classmates. They also opened the galls to find a variety of insect larvae living inside.

On Friday, the middle school student council held its annual "Welcome Back" assembly. Grade levels competed in a game of "Name that Baby," where they had to identify baby pictures of teachers. Seventh grade earned the victory!
