NBMS Band Visit
The NBMS Band will be here on December 5th. Their performance schedule only allows them to be here for 20 minutes, so Mr. Teague has agreed to lead some caroling in the halls so that students are already sitting in place when they arrive. They will arrange themselves in the "T" area by the library.
Waissailfest
This Thursday at 6pm our choir will perform in front of the Robert Morris building on Seguin St. at 6pm. Hope to see you there!
Santa Pics and Penguin Patch
Santa Pictures and the Penguin Patch Preview are scheduled for Friday, December 7th. You will take your class for QUICK Santa pictures (only 10 minutes per class), and when you leave, you will go preview the Penguin Patch in Room 506. Both of these events must run like clockwork, so please be on time. Your preview should only last about 5 minutes actually in the room looking around. Schedule is attached below. I did not schedule by class, but by grade level. Discuss with your team and decide who will take each time slot. A time slot is the whole row across.
