This year's spirit days were picked so every staff member can get involved and feel comfortable participating.  I am hoping to get 100% participation each day. Let's have fun, and show the students what school spirit is all about! 

Monday 10/14 - Pink Out for Breast Cancer Awareness
Tuesday 10/15 - Sneakers and Caps
Wednesday 10/16 - Jersey Day
Thursday 10/17 - USA Out (Red, White or Blue)
Friday 10/18 - Warrior Day (Go over the top) 
*If Jeans are part of your spirit outfit, feel free to wear them

Field Trip Reminders
Location is key for BOE approval.  The date, time, club, etc. does not matter.  Only the location needs approval.

When using outside busing, if the bus shows up and does NOT have seatbelts you are NOT to get on that bus. The trip is canceled.   There are NO EXCEPTIONS for this one!
...But, they said they would have seatbelts when I requested it.
...But, we will lose the money.
...But, the kids and parents will be upset.
None of this matters! 

On Thursday, I will have a graduate student from William Paterson University shadowing me for the day. Her name is Cassi Deighan. If you see her around the building please say hello and introduce yourself.  We will be around the building, in and out of classrooms.
