This Week’s Trivia Question: This year, the Foundation is funding Junior Achievement trips for 4th and 8th graders. Theodore Newton Vail helped found Junior Achievement in 1919. When Vail died in 1920, what was halted nationwide for exactly one minute? (No Googling! First to email Jay Forstner the right answer gets an EGRSF merch prize). Last week’s question was, “Who was the last sitting president to visit EGRHS?” The answer was George W. Bush. Tom Kimball was our winner.

Have a great week! We’re making our schools even better together. Thank you!
