Eventually we plan to have some warmer items also, like fresh cinnamon rolls and breakfast sandwiches. 

Friends of Rachel announces the first Thoughtful Thursday of the school year.  Don't forget to participate in Thoughtful Thursday this week. Sit by someone new!  Get to know people better and make new friends.     

Congratulations October Noble Knights!

Jordan Rinker - 6th Grade Team
Jordan repeatedly goes above and beyond in her classes, often stretching herself beyond the required work, which was noticed even by a substitute staff member.

Seth Gregory - 7th Grade Team
Seth shares his knowledge with others in class while showing a great work ethic.  He excels at demonstrating kindness to others, even when no one's watching.

Walter Oestreich - 8th Grade Team
Walter comes to class each day excited with a positive attitude and ready to learn.  He works to help others success and is a terrific role model for his peers.

All items from the LOST AND FOUND are displayed on the tables outside the office.  Please take a minute to look for anything that may belong to you.  Parents please look over the items too as you come in the building for conferences.  Anything left after November 18th will be donated to a local charity. 

We are selling water bottles (large for $1.25 and small for $0.75) in the MS/HS cafeteria during the mornings. Sales can be cash transactions or charged to lunch accounts.

God's Knights:  All middle school students are invited to join Adam Borsay and Kat Patterson every Thursday for God's Knights!  This will be a time of encouragement in your day! We will meet in Mr. Bunn's room, bring your lunch.  We hope to see you there!
