No school today? Thank you, Election Day!
Before you get too comfortable though, it is time to catch up on what is happening in Hurricanes news.
To start off is attendance and why it matters. Seniors had a class meeting yesterday during their third-period class, and Mr. Larson discussed the usual class expectations, but one of the big points he highlighted was the seniors’ attendance. Fact: Only 55 percent of seniors are arriving to school on time 91 percent of the time. If seniors do not want to take finals in May, they have to be at school on time. Simply, set multiple alarms and prioritize getting to school early. The other grade level meetings addressed attendance and tardies, too.
Today, school board and city elections are happening in the Field House. The ballot box opens at 7:00 a.m. and closes at 7:00 p.m. Make sure you do your civic duty and let your voice be heard through your ballot.
Attention all Fall sports athletes: Your awards banquet form is due to the Athletic Office this Thursday, November 6. Be sure to turn in your form to attend the banquet, which is scheduled for Tuesday, November 11.
Moving forward, this Friday is the First Quarter PBIS Incentive Ice Skating trip. If you received Honor or Merit Roll during the first quarter, you should have turned in your permission slip last week in order to attend. In the morning, freshmen, sophomores, and seniors go together, and later in the day, eighth graders and juniors participate. Ice skating is fun, but do not hurt yourself.
Finally, the Brooklyn City Schools received 100 tickets from the Cleveland Charge to sell to families on November 14 for participation in their 50/50 raffle. Proceeds will be split between each grade level. For the game itself, tickets are $10. We hope that Brooklyn families will come out and support this event on November 14.
Here is the early November calendar:
- November 4: Election Day (NO SCHOOL)
- November 7: PBIS Ice Skating Field Trip
- November 11: Fall Sports Awards Banquet
- November 14: Cleveland Charge Partnership Basketball Game
Have a great and productive first week of November, Brooklyn.
