-Bring a change of clothes and flip flops to change into
-A plastic bag for muddy wet clothes

Coin Drive Benefiting Hope Kids-
Students have an opportunity to give from their piggy banks in chapel for two weeks from Tuesday, 9/12 through Thursday, 9/22. This is an opportunity for students to participate with what they have. Please send them with extra coins from around the house in Ziploc bags with their advisory or homeroom teacher’s name on them. The lower school and middle school classes that collect the most will get a special prize. Hope Kids is an organization that serves children who have a serious illness and their families. We will have one of those families with us in chapel on the 22nd to tell the kids how their coins will be put to good use. Thank you! Chaplin Rhonda
