The high school cross country team is hosting a breakfast fundraiser in the senior cafeteria this Friday.  Sausage and chicken biscuits are $3, donuts are $2, and water or soda costs $1.  If you want all three, you can get a special deal for the $5 combo.  Go Tigers!  

Attention All Students:  

As usual, we will have the option for students to use reading rooms during Friday's spirit day festivities.  There is a sign-up for pep rally, midday activities, and afternoon activities.  One is posted upstairs by Ms. Hale’s room for middle school and on the auditorium doors for high school.  There are three middle school reading rooms and three high school reading rooms.  Please make note of which room you should report to when you signup.   

 Students should not need to go anywhere while in the reading rooms (except the restroom).  This is not a punishment but an opportunity for students that do not deal with noises or crowds to have a quiet location.  Once a student is in the room she or he is to remain there until the next activity.  Attendance will be taken in each reading room.
