Monday, March 7

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

This is a B Day.

7th Grade: All 7th grade girls interested in volleyball, your first practice will be Monday, March 14 at 6:50 AM.  Meet in the gym and be ready to play.  If you have any questions, see Mr. Yamnitz or Ms. Enderlin.

ALL GRADES: Congratulations on a great job with Pennies for Patients fundraiser.  You should feel very proud of yourselves, because with every penny, nickel, dime, quarter, or dollar you donated, you helped out a child with Leukemia.  We raised over $2200 dollars to benefit this foundation. Many classrooms far exceeded their goal of $2.00 per person and will be getting a pennant for their classroom. 

Receiving the Bronze Pennant for raising over $100 are the teams of: Gilpin/Fahn, McGough/Gilmore, Mrs. Richardson/Knafelc and Mrs. Sutterer.

Receiving the Silver Pennant for raising over $200 are the teams of: Grenawalt/McWilliams, Chavers/Fischer and Duran/Mielke.

Receiving the Gold Pennant and the pizza party for their effort, compassion and empathy is the Biddulph/Mena team!! 

Mr. Fischer will also receive a Silver Pennant for being duct taped to the wall for over 30 minutes.  We raised over $200 from this event.  Thank you Mr. Fischer!!  Thank you to everyone who made this an event to remember. 

Reminder:  When you enter the building, you need to turn your cell phone off and store it in your locker.  It is important that it is off and not on vibrate during the school day.  So…at this time…if you have your cell phone with you, please turn it off and take it to your locker.
