Hey students…did you know that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month? As a result, this week in volleyball is Think Pink Week. Here are several ways that you can get involved:

1) On Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday in the DECA store, you can purchase pink bracelets, pink t-shirts, and pink memory tags. All of the money we raise will be donated.
2) On Wednesday, wear pink to school!
3) On Wednesday night, come to the volleyball games and help us beat Mullen. All of the players will be wearing pink uniforms, so wear pink then too!

If you have questions, see Coach Syers, the DECA store, or the signs posted around the school. Thanks for your support of this important cause!

Please pick up you school pictures in the Attendance Office as soon as possible.
