Battle of the Books – We will be meeting on Friday this week during lunch in Mrs. Lent’s room.

Teen Read Week – We are celebrating Teen Read Week all week this week. You will be receiving a Teen Read Week paper in your English classes today. Any reading you do during the week counts and should be recorded on your Teen Read Week paper. If you complete 10 of the 20 tasks you will receive an invitation for a free ice cream. Other prizes will be awarded to finishers. An important note: We will be participating in Drop Everything and Read during homeroom this Wednesday. Make sure you have a book and bring it with you to homeroom. 

Backpacks – Hornets, please remember that your backpacks belong in your locker, as well as your binders. The lost and found bin by the front door is NOT a locker or “holding area” for your belongings.

Hornet Basketball – Hornet basketball have games today at Jo Lane against Jo Lane Red. Boys your team pictures will be today right after school, so please get to the locker room as soon as the 2:15 bell rings to get ready for photos. Your game bus is leaving at 3:00 and we all wish you the best of luck in your games this afternoon.

Picture Re-Takes – Tim Barron Photography will here today for picture re-takes.

Schedule Changes – If you are a student that would like to fill out a form for a possible schedule change, you can pick them up at the office. Schedule changes are not guaranteed and Mrs. Maloney will notify you if and when a change to your schedule has been made. Forms will be available at the office today through Friday.

Kind and Polite – Let’s focus on the good stuff as we begin this new nine weeks. We say this a lot, but please be kind with your words and how you treat others. It really DOES matter! When someone does something nice for you – write it down and hang it up! There are forms up here at the office and your teachers have forms in their classrooms, too.
