The annual food drive put on by Student Council and the NHS starts Monday December 10, and goes through December 21. Bring your donations to your classroom, or the Commons, and student council members will collect items during the week. This year we are making the food drive competition a school wide event. The top three classes throughout the elementary, middle, and high school who collect the highest weight of items will get a pizza party during lunch. Please note: water will not be accepted as a donation. Thank you for your support and donations to the less fortunate people in our community!
The Vegge Entrepreneurs will be selling microgreens in the commons after school today (Friday) - stock up!
FYI:
Thursday's winner of $50 in the Band Parent's Raffle was Amy Gander, with ticket #43.

Today in 6th grade Science, we hosted a screening of the new National Geographic Documentary, Science Fair, What's the Big Idea? When you get the opportunity to see this movie, prepare to be inspired. Our future is brighter when our young students are science-inspired. #ScienceFair
Hailed by critics as “immensely likeable,” “brilliant and quirky” and an “ode to the teenage science geeks on who our future depends,” SCIENCE FAIR follows nine high school students from around the globe as they navigate rivalries, setbacks and, of course, hormones, on their journey to compete at The International Science and Engineering Fair.
Thank you to National Geographic for helping us to inspire our science students by providing free, early release of this movie to science teachers.
