DAY 4

STUDENT INFORMATION   

*Yesterday, our STEM Week trivia question was “Which planet is known as the “Red Planet”?” The correct answer is Mars. There were over 100 guesses submitted and we randomly selected a student that answered correctly from each grade. The STEM trivia winners for yesterday were _________________ on Team _____. Congratulations! You can stop by the main office to pick up your gift card!

Today’s trivia question is technology-based. In the friendly spirit of our competition, please submit your answer without looking it up online. Just give it your best guess! Are you ready? What does CPU stand for in the context of computers?  Submit your guess on the Google form that was emailed to you this morning.

*REMINDER: TOMORROW, Wednesday, October 18th is an EARLY RELEASE DAY and it is also PICTURE DAY. Students will be dismissed at 11:20. Picture Order Forms have been mailed home. If you have not received one, please stop in the main office to pick one up.

*Attention 7th and 8th graders: Upper House Student Council's first dance of the year is Friday, October 27th from 7-9 pm. This is a Halloween themed dance. Costumes are encouraged but must be school appropriate. Tickets will be sold at lunch the week of the dance (Monday-Friday) for $7 and will be $10 at the door. Remember, if you plan to attend you need a guardian to fill out the Social Event/Dance Contract.

*We still have Agenda Books available for any student still needing one. They are $5 each. Please stop by the main office if you would like to purchase one.

* If you have misplaced a lunch box, water bottle, or an article of clothing, please check the cafeteria for missing items.

PARENT INFORMATION

*Review of Dismissal Procedures: If you should need to dismiss your student during the school day, please send your child in with a note, and have them report to the main office. We will log them in our dismissal book and give them a pass. This will help to alleviate disruptions to classrooms during teaching time. You can still email the teachers, however if that is all you do it may not be transferred to the main office. Also, if you just email the main office staff or Administration, due to the volume of traffic in the office in the morning, an email may not be seen right away. Parents/Guardians MUST come to the main office to sign their child out. Students cannot just walk out on their own. Thank you for your understanding.

*A gentle reminder,  for the safety of all staff and students, parents should not be exiting through the parking lot after dropping children off coming from North Avenue. Parents need to exit the parking lot onto Armory Street. Thank you for your cooperation.
