DAILY ANNOUNCEMENTS

We are seeing an increase in cell phone violations in the high school.  Cell phones are not allowed in the classrooms and may be confiscated by your classroom teacher and then turned into the office.  Cell phones are allowed during lunch/lobby time and in between classes, but not during class (unless specific permission has been granted by the teacher or the office).  Please review the cell phone policy in your student handbook.

 

Dress up day for Homecoming Week for tomorrow is “Spirit Day”.

 

All Freshman involved with the Skit/Cheer report to the auditorium today at 3:20 today.   This includes – Tanner, Josh C, Lucas, Derrick, Jon, Marissa, Caitlin, Sierra, Mackenzie, Mikayla, Gabe, Tanner, Allyssa, Nate

 

Homecoming pep rally this week will include 2 games that we need 6 people from each class to sign up for. The sign up sheet was passed around at your class meeting last week and will be posted outside the HS office Monday and Tuesday next week.

 

The game for Spirit Points during the pep rally will be a class lead cheer. Each class can have up to 10 students and will lead the crowd in a cheer. You can NOT include current Football or Basketball cheerleaders in the game and must have a mix of boys and girls. You can come up with your own cheer or use one of the fan favorites. Crowd response will determine the winners. This week could mean a shift in the leader spot with dress up days and all kinds of games! Any points you earn on Friday during the activities will be applied to your class points for the week!

Good Luck!
