On Tuesday the 23rd the student council will be hosting a Mix-It-Up Lunch during both lunches in the cafeteria. Now we know that these things aren’t everyone’s cup of tea. BUT these common high school barriers need to be broken down and by going to Mix-It-Up Lunch; you can go to bed that night knowing you made a difference.
Then the next day on Wednesday the 24th, there will be a school wide talent show during both lunches in Eyeball Alley. Now this isn’t like Rhapsody where you have to sing, play piano, etc. although you still can. But we want WACKY TALENTS. For example, if you’re a sick whistler, yo-yo champ, Rubick’s cube/trumpet god, or juggling phenom. Then you should probably show up and show off your awesomeness. There will be sign ups all over the place; aka StuCo door, Eyeball, and even bathrooms. So everyone needs to come and display his or her weird awesomeness.
Next Thursday, the 25th will also be Beach Day. In preparation for Spring Break, on Thursday wear all your flippy-floppies, bathing suits, sunglasses, your SPF 40, or even bring along some beach toys. But remember, it all MUST be school appropriate.
Hey Chemics! On Thursday April 8th in the Old gym there will be a paddleton tournament starting at 3:45. Teams should get there at 3:30.
