Many of you still need to turn in consent forms! Eligibility will be checked on Friday November 6 so get off to a good start in your second quarter classes!
Raider Run: Will be held on Friday afternoon. Students that did not qualify were sent an email yesterday afternoon. Please check your email during Advisory this morning to know for sure. You only received an e-mail from Mr. Kimmel if you DIDN’T QUALIFY! Each Advisory teacher was sent a spreadsheet of qualifiers so you can also double check with a teacher!

Election Day: Don’t forget to check the bulletin board by the office to inform yourself about your candidates you will be voting for on Monday Nov 2nd. Who will be voted the best actor for IWMS? You’re the ones that get to decide! Every vote counts!
Fact of the Day: Halloween comes from a Celtic festival for the dead called “Samhain.” Irish Celts believed the ghosts of the dead would roam the Earth on this day, so people would dress up and leave “treats” out on their front doors for the roaming spirits. The largest pumpkin ever measured was grown by Norm Craven, who broke the world record in 1993 at 836 lb. That seriously is the size of a Walrus! Coo-Coo Ca-Choo!!!
