Today is a Flex Day for the West Noble School Corp. Kids are working on eLearning assignments while staff members have been involved in team meetings, online tutorials and an informal learning session with Carrie Hoffman from Parkview Health regarding the new Shared Clinic for West Noble Schools. Specifically for the clinic, this is a new benefit for West Noble staff and their families to help with medical needs. Hoffman answered questions ranging from the clinic benefits, how it relates to insurance, what types of services can be rendered, and fielded direct questions from employees.
The kids aren't on campus today, but it was still a busy day with our staff and we continue to learn and grow!

In appreciation of the work he did for equality in our country.
Certainly not the way she would want to go out. But let's take a positive spin on Destiny Martinez's historic run to the IHSAA Girls Wrestling State Finals.
Martinez went 1-1 in her first two contests of the day, serving as the first-ever West Noble female wrestler to make the state finals. The senior won her first match, then lost her second match, sending her to the consoles of the 170-pound placement ladder.
In her third contest against Munster's Allyson Compton, things were moving along at a slow pace, neither competitor really gaining much of an advantage. Compton held just a 2-0 lead off a reversal from the restart, but an awkward fall had Martinez bounce her head on the mat. Play was halted and Martinez was checked out by medical personnel and deemed unable to continue, forfeiting the match. Time didn't catch up to the West Noble senior as the seventh-place match against Wawasee's Kenadi Pierce loomed, and Martinez had to take a medical default.
So a 1-3 day is what the history books will show, but the one win in the first round allowed Martinez to become a state placer, taking eighth overall in her weight class and earning a 20th win on the season.
Martinez will always be the historical 'first' footnote, the first Lady Charger to take part in a Parade of Champions, the first to wear an IHSAA State Finals shirt with her likeness on the back, and the first to earn a medal.
From the West Noble community, congratulations Destiny, what a career! Be proud of your accomplishments!

A championship dream won't be realized, but Destiny Martinez can still finish her career with a win.
In the quarterfinals of the 170-pound bracket at the IHSAA Girls Wrestling State Finals, Martinez ran into Annabelle Redman of Columbus East, and ran into a takedown just a minute into the first round. That was the only move Redman needed as she worked Martinez into a sticky position and into a pin at 1:21 to advance to the semis, sending Martinez to the placement brackets.
Martinez can finish no higher than fifth, but no lower than eighth. Her next matchup will be against Allyson Compton of Munster, and then face either Eleanor Robertson of Franklin Central or Kenadi Pierce of Wawasee.
Stay tuned!
