Hello everyone!  We have an exciting week ahead of us.  Let's begin with some of the fun stuff:

SOUL SURVIVOR:

COME TO SCHOOL AT THE REGULAR TIME ON THURSDAY.  CHECK IN WITH ME AT THE NEW GYM.  IF YOU HAVE ANY MEDICATION, YOU MUST BRING IT TO ME TO KEEP AND DISTRIBUTE.  YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE A TENT, BUT A LOT OF STUDENTS PREFER THAT.  YOU DO NEED BEDDDING AND A CAMP CHAIR. 

  • EVERYONE:  Thursday, you may bring a packed lunch or money for lunch at Fat Eddies.  The choice is yours.  
  • Boys will have a Nerf Battle on Thursday evening.  If you do not have a Nerf gun, please let me know ASAP!   You do not have to participate, but if you want to, you need to bring your own Nerf gun.
  • We will wear our Soul Survivor shirts on Thursday ...but. we may put them back on Friday morning for the elementary to see your presentations.  
  • Just a reminder....EVERYONE NEEDS PICKED UP FROM SCHOOL FRIDAY MORNING.  WE WILL NOT BE STAYING ALL DAY.  I think we will be finished with everything by 10:30 AM.
