Daily Bulletin for Friday, March 12

What’s for lunch? Today’s lunch will be pizza. Monday’s lunch will be stromboli.

Senior class meeting in the gym Thursday, March 18 after first lunch.

The Madison Dragons JOOI Club's March project is a Penny (Coin) Drive for "Pennies for Patients."  The purpose of this fundraiser is to raise money for childhood research so that cures can be found for childhood leukemia and childhood lymphoma.  These two diseases mainly affect children in the elementary and junior high age groups. 

Since March 1, the middle school has raised $228.76!! Their goal is to raise $500.00 by the end of March. 
If you would be willing to help them meet their goal, please bring in any spare change (dollars accepted too!) and take them to Mrs. Engelmann's room. Ask your parents, relatives, break into your piggy banks, check under the couch!

There is a collection box there, and this will be added to the JOOI Club's donations to help get them over the $500.00 goal.  There will also be a box in the main office.  You can also give the donation to any middle school JOOI member.  Go without one pop or a bag of chips this week and donate that money to help save lives!!  Such a small sacrifice for such a good cause!  Thanks in advance for joining us in this important work!

Juniors and seniors Post Prom: Jean Hartner, Kay Freudenburg, and Julie Freudenburg will be here in the commons on Tuesday, March 16 and Wednesday, March 17 from 11:15 am – 1:00 pm to collect money for post prom. Students must go to prom to go to post prom.

There is a lot of jewelry in the lost and found in the office. If you are missing an item, please stop in and take a look.

The gym will no longer be available to students before school or during lunch due to trash and messes being left behind. The actions of a few unfortunately will affect all!

The prom decorations committee is looking for white Christmas trees and little white trees in buckets. We want to create an Enchanted Forest of white trees. We are also looking for a small footbridge to use. If you have any questions, you can contact Ms. Wolta or Mr. Lovercheck. If you have any of these, or know someone that does, please contact Mr. Lovercheck or Ms. Wolta.

See Ms. Lockhart for prom dresses. If I have one you like that fits you, it's yours. To keep an inventory, consider donating previously worn dresses.

Students: Remember – if you are failing one or more classes, you are required to attend ACCESS at 8:00 am

each morning. For every four skipped, a Saturday school will be assigned. You must check-in with your

ACCESS teacher first for attendance. Checking into ACCESS and going to the commons or gym is not

considered attending ACCESS. ACCESS can only help if you attend.

Class of 2011 – senior pictures for next year will be due early in the first semester. Please plan ahead and get your senior pictures scheduled in the summer. We have been having problems getting senior pictures collected on a timely basis. We need two shots – one for the yearbook and one for the senior composite. The senior composite picture needs to be a head and shoulder shot with a plain background and no hands. The picture must be “portrait” orientation. Most all photographers will provide the school with the head and shoulder shot. You just need to ask!!! You can use another picture for the yearbook if you wish.

Here are two great examples:

Winter is definitely here! To check on whether we will follow our regular schedule, start late, or be closed

for a day, there are a number of sources you can check. Each of these will provide you quicker information

about any change to the school schedule than calling the school phone number.

Online, you can check these sources:

1. The Channel 10/11 website at http://www.1011now.com

2. The Channel 4 website at http://www.ktiv.com

A number of area radio stations will also receive information about changes to the school day. Try any of

these: WJAG, KEXL, KTTT, KZEN, KKOT, KLIR, KJSK, KUSO, and KNEN.

If your parent decides it is unsafe or unwise for you to travel to school, please have them call and leave a

message on the answering machine at school.
