Breast Cancer Awareness Month
As you many of you know, October is breast cancer awareness month. The cross country team would like to take this opportunity to support this awareness. On October 17th, the cross country team is hosting all of the GAC schools in the final Jamboree. During this event, we'd like to show our support not only to this wonderful cause, but also to Patty Paris (mother of Adrian, Valentino and Raven) who is currently battling breast cancer. I got shirt and sock sizes from the runners on Saturday. $15 will cover the cost of both the shirt and the socks. Runners will be asked to wear both to school on Tuesday, October 17th and then to wear the socks during our race that afternoon. More details will follow in the next week, but we needed to get everything purchased in order for it to be here on time. Thanks in advance for your support and understanding.
Magnolia and Vine Fundraiser
A huge thank you to Mrs. Keesler and to those parents who supported our Jewelry fundraiser. Mrs. Keesler was able to make a $125 donation to our program. Again, thank you so much for thinking of us!
Pasta Party: Thursday, October 5th
The pasta party is being hosted at the Comis House: 11351 Byron Rd., Howell, 48855
