BETHALTO - During a special meeting on July 30, 2024, the Bethalto Community Unit School District #8 Board of Education approved free admission to all athletic home games for students. Civic Memorial High School (CMHS) students will no longer be required to pay an admission fee to watch home CMHS athletic events, excluding IHSA post-season events. Justin Newell, CMHS principal, noted that the free admission aims to bring an inclusive environment to home games by allowing more students to participate. “This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to fostering a strong, supportive, and spirited school culture,” Newell said. “By allowing free entry to games, we aim to increase student attendance and enthusiasm at our athletic events. This not only boosts the morale of our athletes, who thrive on the energy and support from their peers, but also enhances school unity. When we come together to cheer on our Eagles, we strengthen our sense of community and pride

On this day in 1498, the famed explorer Christopher Columbus, on his third voyage, became the first European to discover the island of Trinidad. This event marked a significant moment in the Age of Exploration and the subsequent European colonization of the Americas. Columbus's discovery opened new avenues for trade and cultural exchange but also set in motion the complex and often devastating impacts of colonization on indigenous populations. Fast forward to 1941, and we find ourselves in the midst of World War II. On July 31 of that year, Hermann Göring, a leading member of the Nazi regime, ordered SS General Reinhard Heydrich to prepare the “Final Solution,” a plan that would lead to the Holocaust. This horrific event stands as a somber reminder of the atrocities of war and the importance of vigilance against
