Good morning Shells! Today is Wednesday, October 28, 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.' When we think of heroes, we often think of capes or superpowers. But real-world heroes don't need to fly. True heroes are the people who have the courage to make positive choices for themselves, their friends, and their future. Choosing to stay drug-free is a superpower that protects your body, your mind, and your dreams
Remember, tomorrow is Pajama day, because heroes don’t always wear capes
It’s time to get in the Halloween spirit and let someone know you are thinking of them. Boo grams are for sale in the Commons during lunch today and tomorrow. Boo grams will be delivered on Friday.
Seniors, you know what’s really spooky? A blank senior section! You only have three days to fill out your senior information form for the yearbook! Forms are due by Oct. 30th. Contact Mrs. Schrewe with any questions.
