submitted
a moment
to examine the freshly painted, vibrant tiger on the gymnasium floor at PHS. Go Tigers!
CAMPUS, from page 1A
sporting events, with the
rlrst home football game
being held Friday, Sept. 1, at
5 p.m.
"There are also many
other small improvements
being made," Sheridan
happily said. "We have two
computer labs completely
refurbished with new
computers, and more
teachers now have access to
the 1:1 devices, where each
student has a laptop
assigned to them.
PHS is also working
toward additional
"C.O.W.s," or Computers on
Wheels, a mobile charging
station with 25-30 laptops on
each for student usage.
Sheridan spoke about how
PHS staff is working to
implement more options for
student activities, and
additional options on the
cafeteria menu to provide
incentives to students that
may have left campus for
lunch in the past.
Volleyball and soccer will
be starting up soon, and
volleyball and flag football
will now be open to sixth-
through eighth-graders in
an effort spearheaded by
Sheridan and promoted by
C. Roy Carmichael
Elementary School
Principal Melissa Leal, in
the hopes of increasing
interest in sports among
students at younger ages,
giving local youth more
opportunity to try out new
sports before they reach
high school.
Volleyball and flag
football teams are still
looking for coaches, so if
there are any members of
the community that would
like to get involved,
Sheridan asks interested
parties to call PHS at
832-4284.
Portola High School coach Matt Compton works to give the
ticket booth at PHS a facelift, donating his time and expertise
to the gratitude of PHS staff.

ROLLER, from page 1A
steam engines and at WPRM,
he started creating mural
paintings an art gallery of
steam engines displayed in
the lunchroom and gift shop
that is still available for
viewing by the public.
Roller was also asked to
paint murals to decorate the
windows of a pizza parlor
owned by John Steffanic,
with scenes of the Portola
Roundhouse and the Portola
train station prominent.
Later, Roller was asked to
join the Railroad Days
committee, and began
painting murals to display in
the windows in town as
Portola decorated for
Railroad Days. Many other
of his paintings were
displayed at the bowling
alley, and his work now
appears at The Caf6 in
Truckee, Portola City Hall,
Plumas Bank in Portola,
WPRM and in the Loyalton
Museum at the old middle
school.
With a spotless Railroad
Days attendance record since
the inception of this annual
event, Roller's love for the
event and for trains lives on.
