ANNOUNCEMENTS/TODAY'S EVENTS

Happy Thursday! Focus on the good and let the rest follow, Eagle Nation!  It is Wellness Fair and Field Day at the Eagles Nest!  It looks like there's a lot of rain in the forecast this afternoon, so please stay tuned if today's games get postponed.  Make sure to check out the Modified Track & Field Highlights from yesterday below.  Tomorrow is Prom! Have fun, and PLEASE BE SAFE!


The Spring Sports season flew by, and it is wrapping up.  Come out to support the Eagles before it is over.  

  • The school year will be over before we know it, as we only have 20 class days left in high school, so make sure you stay on top of everything, so you pass all your classes and don't have to attend summer school.  


Good Luck to all our FFA Members as they are at the State Convention in Buffalo, which runs through Saturday.  
  • Eva Anderson, Lydia Randall, and Abby Conti will be receiving their Empire Degrees!  Congratulations!
  • Eva Anderson is also in the top 3 in New York State for her Beef proficiency SAE. She will find out her final standing tonight.

GALWAY BOOSTER CLUB CAR WASH, BAKE SALE & BOTTLE DRIVE!!!!!!!

Fun fact of the day:  Hippos can’t swim. Hippos really do have big bones, so big and dense, in fact, that they’re barely buoyant at all. They don’t swim and instead perform a slow-motion gallop on the riverbed or on the sea floor. In fact, hippos can even sleep underwater, thanks to a built-in reflex that allows them to bob up, take a breath, and sink back down without waking.

Did you know?  Muggsy Bogues (5′ 3″) is the shortest person to play in the NBA, and Manute Bol (7′ 7″) is the tallest person to play in the NBA. At one point, they played on the same team (Washington Bullets).
