Drop by the library to enter a contest in which two students will be chosen to join Mr. Crutcher for dinner Sunday evening, November 4th. All you have to do is answer these questions:

  • What is your favorite Chris Crutcher book and why is it your favorite?

Two winners will be randomly drawn from all entries at the end of the school day on October 31st.

I was working in the library late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my biology from the table began to rise
And suddenly, to my surprise…

Take a break from all the “ghooling” madness of the holiday season and come check out the Library. In addition to having all the materials and studying tools you need to get ready for all of your “beastly” projects, we are sponsoring a holiday contest for all students! Come check out the jar of goodies located at the Circulation counter and make your best guess. The prize for the closest guess is the jar of goodies of course! The lucky winner will be announced on Wednesday, October 31st.

Student Initiated Groups-

Next Thursday, November 1, you will be quizzed on these facts for a prize, so pay attention. All drivers under 18 and their passengers must wear seat belts. It's the law. Remember to buckle up.

Wearing a seat belt doubles the chance of surviving a crash.

The Remember Club asks you to buckle up and take care of one another.
