The last three years,
North Iowa Schools have sponsored the “Pennies for Patients” Leukemia and
Lymphoma Society Fund Drive. We have had very successful campaigns where
we raised an average of $3000 each year. We have set a lofty goal of
raising $4000 for this year. The fund raising this year will run to
Friday, March 11th.
Childhood leukemia and
lymphoma are the most common types of cancer that face young children and
adolescents. Fortunately, they are also some of the most treatable
cancers if detected early. Funding is needed in a great many ways to help
research these cancers and also to offer support for the children and families
that must deal with the disease. It is our hope that North
Iowa Schools and communities can once again demonstrate a caring spirit and
help in this effort.
Each class will have a canister
in which students may donate any pennies or other change to the project. This
year the younger students will be provided a donation box to aid in their
collecting. The grades that raise the most funds will be rewarded with a
pizza party and also if individual classes raise at least $100 then their class
will be awarded a pennant. Bronze pennants will be given for $100 raised,
Silver pennants for $200, and Gold pennants for $300 per classroom.
Anyone that would still like
to order a letter jacket can order AT ANY TIME online at Neffco.com/neffjacketshop Password: 060158
Reminder: There are some students who have not turned
in the student 9th period opt out form. This form needs to be completed, signed by
your parent, turned into the HS office if you wish to opt out of 9th
hr. on Wednesdays and Fridays. You can receive this form from your 9th
period teacher/advisor or the HS office.
Also a reminder in regards to
9th period on Wednesdays and Fridays: Any student with poor
attendance, multiple tardies, unfulfilled detentions,
and serious disciplinary violations will not be able to opt out of 9th
period study hall those days. If you
have any questions, please talk to your teachers.
HS students: With the
new homework policy students will have 3 days to turn in homework
assignments for any given class. Any homework assignment not turned in
before the 3 days will become a zero (no credit earned for that
assignment). Students who are absent fall under the make-up work
policy where they have 2 days to get work made up. Teachers can request that you stay after
school with them or come to school early to get work completed. Detention
may be assigned to students who do not stay after or come early for a
teacher. Our ultimate goal is to improve on getting homework completed in
a timely and adequate manner. Talk to your teachers if you have any
questions.
Seniors please bring your
senior photos that you want in the yearbook to the high school office.
You can have one formal and one casual photo and if you want to email photos
send to arnevik@northiowa.org
