Do you want to spend some time in Wonderland without that whiny girl called Alice? The Mad Hatter and the March Hare are always having tea parties. What happens when Time comes for tea? Chaos, time travel, monsters, and more! Auditions for The Mad Tea Party will be held TODAY after school in the library from 3:30-6:00. It's going to be an amazing adventure! Don't miss it!

If you will be 18 on or before November 5 and have not registered to vote you may do so TODAY during lunch in the commons. Bring ID with you, preferably a driver’s license or state ID card.  Also, a school ID will work.  In that case you will need to provide the last four digits of your social security number.  The registrar can also do address or name changes for any previously registered voter, including staff.  Once registered you will be able to vote in the upcoming March 19 primary.

 

It was a great night for the shorthanded Blue Ridge varsity and JV academic question and answer teams as all post victories last night going 3-0o the evening.  The varsity defeated Okaw Valley 350-180, ALAH 280-90 and then dispatched Arcola by a score of 400-140 improving their overall record to 30-8 (8-0 in the LPC).  The JV also captured a sweep of those same teams by close scores improving their overall record to 15-5 (8-0 in the LPC).  The varsity was led by AJ Johnsons’ dominating performance of 32 toss-ups followed by Addi Warsaw with 4, Broden Soliday with 2 and Devin Wrestler with 1.  In a balanced scoring JV evening, Taylyn Watterson led the knights with 10 toss-ups.  Congrats to AJ Johnson for breaking the single school record in toss-ups in a match with 14!.  The varsity competes in the highly competitive Winnebago Invite tomorrow facing two top teams in class A departing at 5:35 am.  Good Luck Knights! 

 

Today’s lunch menu is: Pepperoni Pizza

 

Thank you and have a great day!
