Next week is Respect week and we have a lot of color theme dress up days to show our support for inclusion for people with disabilities. On Monday, we ask that all Jr. High students Wear White, in support of the Visually impaired and Blind. On Friday next week, we will wrap up Respect Week by attending a Unified Basketball game at the high school between Peoria Heights and Farmington.

No after school tutoring today.
Students, it has been brought to my attention that we are sharing lots of drinks with each other. Not a smart idea with all the illness going around. So, if we see you sharing your drinks with other people, we will start confiscating your drinks. We are also noticing more and more energy drinks being brought into school. Page 40 of our student handbook states that energy drinks are not to be consumed at school. So, moving forward, we will be enforcing that policy a lot stronger.
At this time, will you please rise for the pledge:
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic, for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Farmer Four:
I am respectful
I am responsible
I am safe
I am prepared
Today is National Citrus Day! Chick Norris once picked an apple from an orange tree, and make lemonade.
