Hiddenite Field Trip- POSTPONED
In order to ensure student safety, the Hiddenite field trip is POSTPONED until April 19th. The safety concern has to deal with the poor air quality that we are experiencing and will continue to experience during the fires in Western North Carolina. While I had hoped that Alexander County would be of better air quality, the extensive network of fires has grown and is now affecting even more counties. I apologize for the delay, but the safety of our staff and students is a critical concern.
Star Trek Beyond: Movie Night
This Friday, November 18th from 3:30pm – 5:30 pm Foothills will have a movie night to fundraise for the Washington DC trip. Students are invited to stay after school and view the movie in West McDowell Middle Schools auditorium. The cost of this event is $5.00 per student which will include popcorn and a drink. Please send $5.00 along with the permission on or before 11-18-16. Students will have an opportunity to purchase candy and glow sticks the day of for $1.00 each. Please send extra money with your child the day of the movie if they wish to purchase these additional items. We will be showing Star Trek Beyond which was released in theaters July 2016. Star Trek Beyond is rated PG-13 by the MPAA for sequences of sci-fi action and violence. Violence: Characters are in peril in many scenes throughout this film, although little blood or other detail of violent acts are shown. Please remember to send in 6 or 12 packs of canned drinks based on your child’s family this week to help cut down on the overhead costs of this event. Mr. Hunt: Orange Fanta/Orange Crush Miss. Smith: Sprite/Sierra Mist Mr. Childers: Bottled Water Mrs. McGovney: Coke/Pepsi Mrs. Meaney: Mountain Dew/Mello Yellow Mrs. Powell: Dr. Pepper/Cheerwine The students will be picked up after the movie at 5:30 pm at West McDowell Middle School in the front covered area. (The same location as daily drop off and pick up) Thank you for all your support during this fundraising event! ***PERMISSION FORMS WERE SENT HOME TODAY!
