Red Ribbon Week
Last week was Red Ribbon week. As always, the Student Council fills the week with fun activities and dress up days. This year, students hunted for Red Ribbons throughout the building each day of the week. Students that found a ribbon could vote for the Student Council member they wanted to see get a pie in the face. The votes were counted on Friday, and REED BICKETT was selected as the recipient of the pie in the face. Students cheered on as Ayden Hensley was selected to deliver the pie. Thank you to Student Council for the fun, and to Reed for being a good sport!

Book Fair Next Week
The PTO Book Fair will begin next week in the Library. Watch for your child to bring home information regarding the Book Fair and shopping times. Students will preview items early on in the week and put together their wish lists. There are also wish lists for teachers if you would like to donate to your child's classroom.
