Good morning Shells! Today is Wednesday, February 14th, 2024.
Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance followed by a moment of silence.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America,
and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
It’s valentine’s day so on this day, let’s reflect on this beautiful quote by Langston Hughes, “Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.”
Juniors, don’t forget to come to the SAT prep sessions on Wednesday during Advisory. No need to sign up ahead of time! Just come to Ms. Turley’s room after Advisory attendance. We will be going over some tips and tricks, as well as exploring resources you can use to prepare.
