Daily Announcements

Good morning Shells! Today is Friday, November 1st, 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.  

Today we continue Red Ribbon Week. 

Friday: Red Ribbon Week is a cornerstone of a healthy, drug-free life. Each year, students nationwide participate as a commitment to themselves and others to stay drug-free. Thank you, Roxana High School, for being part of this important event!

For the final day of Red Ribbon Week, come take a selfie in front of the Red Ribbon wall next to Room 209 (Mrs. Gibson's Room)! Don't miss out on a great photo op! 


Reminder for Student Council Members: Today is the final day to turn in both money and the completed form for the Fall Fundraiser. Be sure to get everything submitted to Mrs. Lish on time! 

Today is the last day to register for our mock election to be held on Monday. Please go to your email, open the form sent to you by Ms. Schrewe, and take 30 seconds to fill out the form. There will be no registration accepted after today!

This is a big weekend at RHS. To get it started, we will have a pep rally today starting about 2:00 in Larry Milazzo Gym. We will recognize our ILMEA award winners, Illinois State Scholars, the cast of Lagoon’d, our cross country teams, cheerleaders, dance, and football teams. 

MONDAY:  Anyone interested in winning a $25.00 VISA gift card?  All you have to do is take a selfie of you composting your pumpkins and enter it into the Madison County Green School Pumpkin Purge Contest.   For more information see or email Ms. Hanneken now through November 15th.

Students, at this time, your cellphones should be docked in your classrooms and your backpacks in your lockers. 


Make it a great day, Shells!
