If you’re interested, please sign up by Friday, 10/19 – sheets will be on a table near the counseling office.  If you haven’t been out for a 1^st quarter sport, you must be “cleared” to participate, which means all forms and a current sports physical must be on-file before joining 2^nd quarter sports.

As a reminder, the first Boxtops for Education labels collection will take place tomorrow during Resource period. Students from Mrs. Devine’s Resource class will be picking up the labels so have them cut and ready for pick up. All Boxtops labels that are collected this year will count towards the pizza party competition. Help your Resource win and help the PTSA with our goal of raising $500.00 of extra cash this year for programs that benefit you!
