Thursday – October 10, 2013
Orange Day

Eligibility, Homework, MS Updates are due at noon today!  

Good Luck to the VB team as they host TDA today in Woonsocket at 4:30.  The Woonsocket NHS is serving Skeeters Broasted Chicken & Fries for $5 from 4 to 9 pm tonight.

Football practice is in Springs today.

No 5/6th Basketball practice today due to gym conflicts.

We have been collecting pop tabs for the Ronald McDonald House.  The Kingsburys will be headed to Rochester the week of October 21st.  Lynette will pick up what we have on October 21st – so if you are stock piling any – bring them in!

Parent Teacher Conferences will be held on Monday, October 14th from 1:00-6:00 pm. These are the hours that the following teachers will be available for conferences:
    Corey Flatten     1:00 - 3:00
    Tim McCain        1:00 - 3:30
    Tracy Moody       1:00 - 3:30 but will be in the concession stand area until 6:00
    Rick Olsen        1:00 - 3:00
    Brett Kroeger     3:30 - 5:00
    Chelsea Wenzel    3:30 - 5:00 
If parents cannot be here during those times, MS and HS students can still receive bonus points if they contact the teacher either by e-mail, phone, or set up another conferencing time by Wednesday, October 23. That goes for any parent that cannot attend conferences.

Don’t be the one to spread the flu!!!!!!!  Only three days left to get put on the list!  Flu immunization forms are available in the office or on our web site.  The shot will be given free of charge to all students on October 23rd from 7:30 am until 10:30 am. We are asking that all forms be returned by October 16th to get put on our list.  It goes very smoothly if Marla can pre-draw the shots, however, as long as vaccine is available that morning, you can still get a shot.  

Need MS volunteers to work the 6:45 – 7:45 shift on Saturday’s Kingsbury Pep Rally applying tattoos and painting fingernails.  See Mrs. Vermeulen

Keep in mind that Jack Links is sponsoring a tailgate party Friday, October 11th at the football game in Springs.  All proceeds will go to Spartan athletics.

Blackhawk Cheer Camp – Grades Kindergarten thru 4th – October 22nd & October 24th – Cost is $20 which includes shirt, ribbons, and a meal.  Information has been sent home with students or contact Chelsea.wenzel@k12.sd.us
