STUDENT OF THE WEEK
Congratulations goes to Lindy S. for being our student of the week.  Lindy was recommeded by Mrs. Kay and seconded by Ms. Roberts.  Lindy is always asking if there is any way she can help her teachers or other students. She constantly has a smile on her face and a joke to share because she loves smiling and making others smile too.  She puts forth her best effort in all of her classwork and is a leader in the classroom.  Congratulations Lindy!

MATH-A-THON
As soon as you have collected all of your pledges, you may bring them to room 230. Remember, pledges of at least $100 means you will be invited to this year’s lock-in. If you have any questions please see Mrs. Brown in room 230.

BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION
Box Top collections !! This year we will be collecting box tops and having a friendly competition between home rooms. This is an easy way to fund raise for the extra things our classrooms my need throughout the year. Just ask your students and parents to clip and save. Deposit them in the collection boxes with your homeroom name on them (or place in Mrs. Nimigean's mailbox in the high school or Mr. Muck's mailbox in the junior high).We will collect for 3 months for each giveaway.Winners will be awarded the first of December, March and June (top collector in each building). Make sure you get them turned in for a homeroom treat!
HANDBOOK REMINDER 
Students who are leaving school early for an appointment should remember to come to the office first thing in the morning before school starts to receive an exit pass. They should not give their notes to their teachers. Do not wait until lunch to receive your exit pass.

DROP OFF ITEMS
Students, if your parents drop off items for you during the day, they will be held at the front door with our door monitor. Please listen to announcements during the class changes for your name. At that time, you may pick up your items from the door monitor.

SAFETY REMINDER
When getting off of the bus in the morning, be sure to stay on the sidewalk to get to the junior high. Do not walk on the cement island.

CHROMEBOOKS
Students please remember to limit what you take to each class. Chromebooks can not be stacked on several books. Carrying several books increases the chance for your chromebook to slip and break.

HEALTH ROOM VISITS
You must report to your next hour teacher before coming to the health room unless it is an emergency. That way your teacher knows where you are.
