The Bark Goes Digital

It’s never too much to say that our historical community is, at a very rapid pace, approaching its digital age. The high school is possibly the largest arena for the digital age. It isn’t just the student body that has made the transition from the technology of our births into this new age of cells phones that can do practically anything for you except wash your laundry.
We have seven classrooms in our school that contain a full set of working computers. For anyone to conclude that more than three quarters of our student body population has a cellular device. Living in the 21st century we have come to assume that technology will just continue to improve with the generations that expand as well.
It has been said in the past that soon the traditional letter mail will be replaced with e mail and newspapers will be expunged as well. The Bark, however, refuses to let technology run down the traditional production of our journal.
This year The Bark is putting our publications online; and we are encouraging as many people as we can to get on and read our articles. We have many different features on our website: we have a weekly poll, all of our advertisers are listed, with accurate broadcast of there company, and pictures of our some of our students in action.
We are encouraging as many people as we can to visit our website and see how we have taken our out-of-date publications to the next level. Our website is barkonline.blogspot.com
Not only have we decided to begin putting our publications online but Mr. E. Smith has set up an account with the Michigan High School Athletic Association, MHSAA. The website is designed to publicize Michigan High School athletics and to help athletes get recognized.
 Eaton Rapids began partaking in the calamity at the beginning of the competitive sports season, with our first recorded game being our JV football game against Charlotte on September 9th.
These videos are on the MHSAA website. To get to our schools videos you use the URL: www.MHSAA.tv/EatonRapids. On the website you can find a variety of videos with some of our awesome greyhounds in action.
