Good morning Shells! Today is Monday, October 26, 2026.
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.
This week is Red Ribbon Week, and our theme for 2026 is 'Make a Difference. Be a Hero. Stay Drug Free.' Choosing to live drug-free isn't just about saying no—it's an act of leadership, courage, and positive influence. Every single day, your choices impact your friends, your family, and your school. Be a hero for yourself and your future."
Remember, tomorrow is TWIN day, because heroes work together.
