Students at G. Ray Bodley High School got H1N1 flu shots on Monday, as the vaccine arrived not in time to help with the recent outbreak but perhaps to help head off an expected third wave in 2010.  Also, you’ll read what the HOPE club is up to, how well last night’s band concert went and much more.

Today in RaiderNet Daily: The students you see above are juniors who got tours of Syracuse-area colleges recently.  Also, it’s holiday concert night at the high school for the bands and jazz bands, with a special performance from local music teachers.  And we’ve got some advice on staying warm in cold weather.

Members of Fulton’s girls basketball team turned sorrow into something positive Tuesday night.  They played in honor of the father of senior Aly Moroz.  Her father passed away recently from cancer.  The girls rang up a win and we’ve got the story in today’s RaiderNet Daily.

It’s audition time for the next performance from Quirk’s Players and some of the students getting ready to audition are a bit nervous about it.  Also today, students find ways to go green, while one writer ponders the legacy of John Lennon, shot down 29 years ago this week.

It’s a double shot of RaiderNet Daily today.  For some reason, the RaiderNet we published on Friday isn’t on the website anymore.  So it’s here, along with Monday’s fresh news, which includes reports on a tough weekend for the Red Raider sports teams.

Today, we meet G. Ray Bodley’s new school nurse, who began her job in the middle of the H1N1 outbreak that had as many as one in five students home sick.  Also, a look ahead to some winter activities and a commentary on autism.

Today, RaiderNet Daily digs in to the district’s controversy over a mascot and logo for the district and its sports teams.  For decades, a Native American head and headband with feathers served as the logo.  Under pressure from the state and after criticism from some Native Americans, the district changed to a red block “F”.  Find out what people are saying inside the school on this issue.
