There will be a pep rally this afternoon for the Girls District Final game at 2:45PM-3:00PM in the Woonsocket Gym.  Players, coaches, and cheerleaders will leave at 2:30 from here.  Mr. Kroeger and Ms. Wenzel will also be leaving early.  Any others attending must have parent permission.

6th Band will not meet today – you will have study hall with Mrs. Coulthard - Bring plenty to work on!

Boys will practice at Sanborn Central today.

We were given a box of T-shirts in various sizes to give away – A lot of 2014 Hanson Classic ones – Stop in the office if you’d like one!

Today our highlight is Ms. Knigge, our middle grade teacher at Upland Colony for the past 13 years.  Ms. Knigge graduated from Mt. Vernon High School, Dakota State, and DWU.  Even though she appears to have stayed close to home she has traveled to Japan, the Bahamas, Florida, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Washington, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Idaho, Nevada, North Dakota, Illinois, Missouri, and Kansas before she turned 35 years old. Unfortunately, her ability to travel took a curve and she hasn’t been on a vacation since.  Ms. Knigge loves little kids and watching them grow and learn. Seeing their faces light up when they accomplish a task that they have worked so hard at is just heart-warming to her.  She wants to make a difference!  Each day Ms. Knigge looks forward to teaching young children as she doesn’t find it boring - You never know what they are going to say or do next and she looks forward to watching them succeed in new tasks or goals.  Ms Knigge we are so happy to have you on our Sanborn Central team!

Have you found that perfect prom dress?  The Glass Slipper in Mitchell may be able to help.  The Glass Slipper project gives away free prom dresses and accessories to high school students in the Mitchell and surrounding areas.  The Glass Slipper collects new and almost-new formal dresses and accessories and provides them free of charge to students who are unable to purchase their prom attire.  Student does not need to prove any financial hardship in order to get a dress.  Each student will receive individual assistance from a volunteer "personal shopper" as she shops for the dress of her dreams.  The event will be held Friday, February 28th from 4-8 pm and Saturday, March 1st from 9:00 am - Noon at the Mitchell Wesleyan Church.  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxqWDgwTHOqeeDh1VnhaOE9WSHc/edit?usp=sharing
