DECA adviser Grace McCloskey is also a sales and marketing teacher at the high school, who gets her students involved in the show as a way to introduce valuable skills and allows them to apply them to real world situations.

Take a trip into “The Downside Up”

Olson Middle School eighth-grade student and recently published author Olivia Hughes takes readers on an adventure to “The Downside Up” in her new poetry compilation.

“The Downside Up” is a book of fantasy and fiction, and Hughes said that on the journey through approximately 25 original poems, “You will find a pencil-eating dragon that may lurk through your school halls. You will see a boy who is stuck inside a pickle, and one who has turned into a diving board. You will find a house that is drowning in dogs and a boy drowning his sorrows.”
