ANNOUNCEMENTS/TODAY'S EVENTS
Hello, Friday! As the week is ending, remember three things that you did that you are proud of. Big or small, it doesn't matter. That's a great way to start your weekend, EAGLE NATION! Remember, the early bird catches the worm! Come out tonight to support the Varsity Volleyball team as they host the #8 seed Coxsackie-Athens in Section 2 Class C sectionals tonight at 5:00 p.m. We hope you all come out to support them.
Remember, keep it classy, Eagle Nation!

Attention Eagle Nation!
The National Junior Honor Society has a new project - Treats for Troops! We’re asking students to donate their extra wrapped Halloween candy to be sent to American soldiers stationed all over the world. This event lasts between November 3rd and 7th.

Elementary

Middle/High School
During A, B, and C lunches, students from grades 6-12 will donate wrapped candy into boxes to receive a vote for their teacher of choice. Whichever box gets the most candy in it will cause the chosen teacher to get pied in the face during our next pep rally! The options are Mr.Levin, Mr. Nettleton, Mr. Kirvin, and Coach Glenn!
Registration for Modified, JV, and Varsity Winter Sports is open. Please see the link below.
