Have you seen the posters around school?? That is right, our movie afternoon is on February 28. The movie, “Safety”, begins at 3:45. Be sure to save up your CORE cards and have them turned in to have a chance at VIP seats & benefits. There is a special collection box for these in the main office. Looking forward to seeing you there!
Because of the weather, there will not be soccer club today after school.
Attention 7th Grade Volleyball Girls! We have less than a week until our first practice!! Keep getting that paperwork in and fees paid to Ms. Cook in the main office. All items must be turned in before practice on the 26th.
8th grade boys basketball players, it’s time to celebrate the great season we had. Please meet in Mrs. Marshall’s room after school on Tuesday, February 25th to turn in your jerseys and enjoy some sweet treats. Make sure that you wash your uniforms before you turn them in! Please see Coach Altena or Coach Marshall with any questions.
Do you know anyone in your family who has or has had cancer? Next week NJHS will be hosting their annual Pennies for Patients drive starting next Monday, February 24th to support the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society with cancer research and patient support. This will be a penny war competition amongst our CORE Plus classes. Each teacher will have a box in their CORE+ class to collect donations. Pennies go in your own box for positive points, but watch out! Other students can add other coins and bills to your box to sabotage you as well! The past two winners have been Mrs. Donda in 2024 and Mrs. Toland in 2023. Let’s see if these winners will win again or if a new CORE+ will take the title this year!
Magic: The Gathering will meet after school next Monday. Set your deck, refine your strategy, and join us in Mrs. Blake’s room for some fantastic competition!
PRIDE Leaders: Our next activity with the sixth graders will take place during CORE Plus next week. Mrs. Blake will hold two training sessions during lunch on Monday and Tuesday. Please make arrangements to attend one of these times. If you are unable to attend, please let Mrs. Blake know so that you can receive the training at another time. Always remember… Be the PRIDE Leader today you want to be remembered in two years!
