Attention Students: The High School Student Council is asking for your help in determining this year’s Homecoming theme. On Friday, October 8th, we play the Northwood Vikings in our 2010 Homecoming game and would like your suggestions for a theme. There will be a box located in the HS Media Center where you can write suggestions down for the theme, such as “Sink the Vikings” and of course more creative ones! You can put your name on the suggestion if you like, but you don’t need to. We will stop taking suggestions next Tuesday, September 28th and the Student Council will then narrow it down to 5 selections to present back to the student body to vote for a overall theme for this year’s Homecoming. We look forward to seeing what you come up with, so get creative!

 

Attention Seniors: The Publication Productions class will be in contact with each of you starting this week to create your Senior Spotlight, which will be featured in both the Buffalo Center and Thompson newspapers. Please be checking your email and responding back to these students when you are approached for this information. Any questions, feel free to check in with Mrs. Recker. Thank you!
