Thursday, November 11

Be Respectful, Be Excellent, Be Accepting, Be a Leader

This is a B Day.

ALL GRADES: Did You Run “The Stride”? Although we lost the Championship by only 25 participants, we had more people run this year than last year so Friday is “Stride Pride” day.  All runners get free ice cream during lunch on Friday!  Wear your Stride T-Shirt and show your PRIDE in physical fitness.

Attention Brain Bowlers.  Our meeting this week is canceled so that we can attend the Pilates class after school.  Give your brain a break and come work your body!  Mr. Yamnitz and Mrs. Lloyd will see you again at Brain Bowl next week, November 17 in room 209.

Attention Students – Please take a moment to check out the Lost and Found tables located on the small stage in the cafetorium.  All items will be donated if not collected by Friday, November 19.

Spelling Club will meet in room 94 on Thursdays after school until 4:15.  Bring a snack.  New club members welcome until Thanksgiving break.

Attention Team Dorie members of Aquarium club, we will be going to Neptunes on Monday, November 15, after school to get more fish for the downstairs tanks.  See ya in room 81 after school!

WELLNESS WEEK #3 –

Stress/Handling the Holidays – Nov. 8th – 12th

·         Work out our stress and have fun at the same time.  Thursday we’ll de-stress with Pilates.  All students and staff are welcome to participate.  Be REAL!

·         Sometimes gift purchasing can be stressful.  Some kid-friendly stress-free gift ideas include book marks, coupons to help out around the house and how to make a pine cone bird seed feeder.
