Schedules during testing
Also - 7th and 8th graders, please wear or bring athletic shoes to school the next 4 weeks. We will be going outside to learn how to march and to prepare for our Jr. Blossomtime Parade. "She Loves You" needs to be memorized by April 24th. The parade is Thursday, May 4th. I will have more details regarding times once I receive them from the Blossomtime committee. The uniform is the green middle school marching jacket (school provided), black pants, black socks, and black marching/athletic shoes (student provided).
8th grade - If your green jacket from homecoming no longer fits, please bring it back in so we can swap it out!
I will need one or two parents to help distribute green jackets to our 7th grade students. Email krosselit@homeoftheshamrocks.org if you are available.
