Good Morning, Pirates!!!!

Quote of the Day:





Keep working!!


Speaking of working, our kitchen ladies work very hard to prepare nice meals for you.  It's not easy to cook for Kindergarten through Seniors, but they do.  Eat your free breakfast and enjoy your lunches.  Make sure they know they are appreciated!

Today's Lunch:

Tomato Soup,
Toasted Ham & 
Cheese Sandwich,
Applesauce
-Salad Bar-


Africa's highest peak is snow-covered Mount Kilimanjaro located in Tanzania. It rises 19,000 feet above sea level and is a beautiful dormant volcano. What isn't so beautiful is that small villages in Tanzania lack fresh water which has to be carried on foot up to 5 miles, usually by women and children.
  Victor Earth Science Classes, along with a few 7th graders, visited the art room to make magazine paper beads for a Students Rebuild Fundraiser to provide fresh water for villages in Tanzania. For every 30 beads made by a student, money is donated to provide a villager in Tanzania with fresh water for an entire year. Beads are traditionally a form of currency in many African nations and their unique patterns transmit cultural meaning. Check in with Mr. Beckwith or Mrs. Ogden if you would like to contribute to the Fresh Water Challenge. Be the change!
