1. Hey Seahawks! We've got some exciting news! This year we have our FIRST EVER Homecoming Food Drive and it kicks off September 29th and runs through October 3rd. All donations will go directly to Food Backpack 4 Kids, so let’s come together and make a big impact in our community. Here’s how it works: each class competes to see who can bring in the most food. You earn spirit points for each item that you bring in, but you earn DOUBLE POINTS for granola bars, individual packs of goldfish crackers, fruit snacks & oatmeal packets. Please drop off your donations before school starts each day at the ASB window.  Let’s show our school pride by filling those bins and helping our community. Together, we can make this food drive a huge success!
2. Next week is the DEADLINE for the Washington DC trip during Mid-Winter break. Wanna see the monuments and memorials? Experience the Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier? Roam the Hall of Congress? Go bowling in the White House? You can possibly make all that happen only if you sign up with Mr. Messersmith in room W5 as soon as possible.
