Good morning Shells! Today is Thursday, April 11th, 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.
Student Council is organizing their annual blood drive on Friday, April 19, 2024. If you are 16 or older you can sign up to donate blood. Did you know that 1 in 7 patients that are hospitalized require a blood transfusion? And that every pint of blood collected saves 3 or more lives? This week you can sign up in Mrs. Gibson’s room. Next week, sign up will be at lunch as well. Your reward for doing a good thing you ask? A $10.00 gift card!
