Welcome to the final week of October, full of Halloween fun.
As the second quarter is underway, there is not much happening in the present; however, there are some items of note.
First, AP Spanish is underway with its annual Dia De Los Muertos project. It involves creating skull pictures with bright colors and artistic creativity. The class will follow up the skull projects with a grand fiesta next week.
Next, Fall sports are officially in the books, which means Winter sports are up and running. This Friday, boys basketball begins for grades 9-12. Tryouts will start at 3:15 in the main gym. All boys are encouraged to participate.
Staying with Winter sports, hockey began practice this morning at 5:30 and will continue tomorrow from 5:30-7:00 a.m. It is not too late to sign up, so if interested, see Mr. Zofka, the Athletic Director, for more information.
With Halloween falling on Thursday this week, there is currently a themed spirit week underway. Please plan out your wardrobe in advance and participate in the final three days.
Finally, on November 5, there will be no school due to Election Day, but there will be an opportunity to obtain community service hours, so please, sign up soon as slots are filling up.
Here is the upcoming event calendar for October and November:
- October 29: Sophomore ELA Field Trip
- October 30: Community Information Night
- October 31: Halloween 🎃
- November 5: No School (Election Day/Community Service)
- November 12: Return Fall Sports Awards Slips for Banquet
- November 20: Fall Sports Awards Banquet
- November 27-December 1: Thanksgiving Break
We hope everyone has a safe and spooky Halloween week and weekend. Be sure to dress for the weather as it will be mid-70s until Thursday but a drop to low-50s this Friday.
Have a frightful rest of the week, Brooklyn!
