There is a special High jump practice at lunch today. All athletes who have signed up to attend the clinic should arrive just after 12:00 in proper gym strip. Advisory teachers, we would like to have the high jump students stay at the special practice from 12:00 – 1:00. An email with the list of high jump students was emailed out last night. If you need your students back before silent reading, please just let Ms. Schuring or Ms. Zaza know.
We are looking for some positive, energetic students to help out at the Kids Run. It does mean giving up a Sunday morning and fighting that alarm clock, however, think about the kids your age and younger and the fights they fight every day. Come and show your Colquitz support for this amazing event. Pick up information outside Mrs C’s classroom. We will have a meeting next week where hopefully 8-10 of you are able to help out.
Robotics team practice has been cancelled. See you next week on April 24th. Save the date of April 30th for a potential robotics competition meet.
