- Today, we started a Scholastic News Election study unit. No homework today but there may be future assignments.
- Book orders have shipped.
- This Friday is the extra long Science Lab class on owl pellet dissection. It will take place in the Multi, and students who are allergic to animal hair will be placed in the Library or Office and given an alternative assignment.
- ALSO, this Friday is College Day. (Wear clothing, etc. from parent's/s' alma mater, or choose a college you want to go to and wear something from there.)
- Next Wednesday is an Earthquake/Fire Drill. Remember to DROP, COVER, and HOLD for an Earthquake, and evacuate swiftly and safely to the blacktop for the Fire drill.
- Yearbook sales have started! Best time to buy them is now because they're only $20 AND you get to personalize your back cover. Prices go up scarily after 10/31.
- We have started two Reading Log programs for October: Book It!, sponsored by Pizza Hut, and Reading is Cool, sponsored by the San Jose Sharks. Students who complete the monthly reading log get a coupon for a free personal pizza and entered for possible prizes from the Sharks.
