Announcements for Monday, February 15, 2012

1.     Today’s lunch is Grilled Cheese Sandwich, assorted fruits and vegetables, and low-fat white or chocolate milk.

 

2.     On this day in 1961, the entire 18-member U.S. figure skating team is killed in a plane crash in Belgium. The team was on its way to the 1961 World Figure Skating Championships in Prague, Czechoslovakia.

 

3.     Just a reminder to all 7th grade students that the first 3 Williamsburg trip forms are due to Ms. Wilson this Thursday February 16th.  All forms can be found on her website and just remember that if your forms are late Ms. Wilson will get to choose your bus seat.  Even students that do not plan to go on the trip must turn in the initial permission form with a t-shirt size.

 

4.     Buy a heart for $1, get a chance to win prizes in the morning or afternoon raffle, and give to some good causes.  Hearts are sold outside the auditorium before homeroom and during each lunch period in the cafeteria. The Wall of Hearts Fundraiser supports the American Heart Association and the Echoes Foundation.   If the 8th grades donate $420 or more, Mr. Ferris will shave his beard!
