STUDENT NOTES

Tuesday is Club Day. We invite the entire student body to visit our wide variety clubs during lunch to see what’s available and to see what matches your interests. Many of the clubs will be selling tasty treats like root beer floats and tasty nachos, so bring a few extra dollars and enjoy a lunch time treat guaranteed to satisfy. Club advisers, please check your email today to make sure your table and food registrations are accurate.

If you are in need of community service hours you can find a list of opportunities posted outside Mr. Roark’s office.

Safeway will donate 10% of the dollar value of your store receipts this week through Sept 26th.  Remember we’re hosting a competition between all 2nd period classes where you can win a pizza party if your class brings in the most receipts. There are two pizza parties left, so don’t be left behind… turn in your 2nd period receipts ASAP.
