This is the year for the 7th annual student faculty basketball game. A big tradition here at MKA, large donations are made by the money we raise. This year, MKA will be supporting Team Zoey primarily, but also the Montclair Volunteer  Ambulance Department. Team Zoey supports kids born with progeria; this causes children to age 7 to 10 times faster. Now lets get the happy stuff: t-shirts will be sold the week of the 15th. These can be worn on any spirit day. The coin drive jars are out and the student government urges you to bring in as much money as possible; the only rule is that you can not bring pennies. This year’s players include: Faculty/Staff Men Randy Kleinman Ken Smith Leon Shade Gary Pacheco Reshan Richards Alex Gordon Tom Fleming Andrew Powers Larry Canales Richard Sunshine Ed Thompson Faculty/Staff Women Shanie Israel Alina Yurkovsky Alise Shuart Nichole Foster-Hinds Amy Fossett Catherine Gaynor Jessica Bishop Shiva Behradnia Susan FitzGibbon Guada Cabido Laura Zimmerman Girls’ and Boys’ ”A” and “B” Basketball Teams

They’re passionate in all they do and they make things larger than life. Unfortunately, this passion and enthusiasm can leave Dragons feeling fatigued and oddly, longing for more.While Dragons frequently help others, they like to thing on their own and try not to ask for help. Others are attracted to Dragons, especially their colorful personalities, but truly, Dragons prefer to be alone. Perhaps that is because they’re most successful when working alone. Their need to be alone can come across as arrogance or conceitedness, but that is rarely the case. Dragons have very short tempers.Health Considering their hard-working nature, Dragons are usually healthy overall. They do get stressed and suffer from time to time tension/headaches, likely
