Tuesday we will be going on a field trip to the Ellen Eccles theater. We will be seeing Julie Fowlis perform Gaelic music. The buses will leave school at 12:10 PM and return at 2:30.
This is also Red Ribbon Week. Here is the schedule of activities for the week:
Monday - Wear your craziest socks to "Sock it to drugs!"
Tuesday - "Hats off to giving drugs the boot!" so wear hats and boots today.
Wednesday - "Staying healthy and doing drugs don't match" so be mismatched today.
Thursday - "Follow your dreams" and wear pajamas today.
Friday - "Scare out drugs!" by wearing your Halloween costume today.
The Halloween parade will be on Friday morning at 8:20. Parents are welcome to attend. There will be seating in the gym. There are a few rules to ensure that everyone has a good time: please, no masks, no weapons (real or fake), no gore, and minimal face paint. Students may wear their costumes during the parade, but they will need to change into regular clothes afterwards.
