4. Students and staff, would you like to make a huge, potentially lifesaving difference in someone's life? Well, here is your chance! The NHS is hosting a community blood drive on Monday, January 27th. NHS members will be around to Homerooms during PRIDE this week to find volunteers for this worthy cause. Students 16 and over can donate (although those who haven't reached 17 will need a parent permission form). Don't worry if you have never donated, it is quick and easy and they give you cool snacks when you are done. When you sign up, you will need to fill out a mini-preplanned absence for the time you are donating. If we miss you during PRIDE, you can stop in the office to sign up as well. Thanks for saving a life!!
5. Seniors: If you would like to participate in this year's full-of-laughs senior class play, be sure to sign up on locker 438. If you have questions or concerns, please talk to Danny, Mrs. Maertz, or Mrs. Luedtke. We will do our best to work around your schedule! There are roles of all sizes available (even ones without speaking lines!) so don't miss out! Last year's actors repeatedly said they were sad they didn't try something this awesome sooner!
