THURSDAY, JANUARY 19, 2017

 

PLEDGE & MOMENT OF SILENCE

TODAY IS A “B” DAY

 

DAMONTE. Be Nice. In celebration of Kindness week, Student Council is holding lunch activities that you are all encouraged to participate in. Going on throughout the whole week, Students may play Kindness Bingo by completing random acts of kindness found on BINGO cards that you can pick up at lunch in the counselors hall. Prizes will be awarded to those that complete a Kindness Bingo!

 

On Thursday, January 19th there will be a practice round of BLINK, a fast pace card game competition leading up to our final BLINK tournament on Friday January 20th. Every student can take their chance at battling a Student Council member in this game to win a slice of free pizza. That's right, free pizza for whoever can beat a student council member in BLINK. Bring your A- game this Friday in the counselor’s hall to enjoy a piece of pizza.

 

Take advantage of these lunch activities all week and remember, BE KIND!
