Sugar Creek Shark-a-thon Begins This Week!
We will have our kick-off tomorrow at 8:30 a.m. in the cafeteria. Students are encouraged to earn pledges for each lap they run at our Fun Run, which will take place next Friday (November 2nd) from 9:00 to 10:00 a.m. Students will run an average of 35 laps during the run, so keep that in mind when you pledge dollars per lap.
As part of the fun of Shark-a-thon week, we will also observe several fun spirit days:
Wednesday 10/24 - "Shark Day" - Wear your Sugar Creek Sharks spirit wear.
Thursday 10/25 - "Purple Day" - Wear as much purple as you can.

Students will also take their Explorers Unit Test on Tuesday, October 30th. Their study guide is already in their homework binder. I have encouraged them to look over each explorer for a few minutes each night this week.
