Daily Annouoncements
Congrats to Hannah McLane who won the Day 1 STEM Week trivia contest. How old is our solar system? It is 4.6 billion years old. Stop by the library every day this week for another STEM trivia question.
The Peer Leaders are again hosting a poster contest open to all grades. This year's theme is "Inclusion". Posters must be hand drawn and will be judged on appearance, creativity, impact and clarity of message. Pick up your poster paper before or after school from Miss Guanci in Health Assisting. Posters will be judged before Winter break and prizes will be awarded!!

**PARENTS: HAVE YOU MADE YOUR ANNUAL DONATION TO THE MPA?**
Every family already belongs to the MPA. We do not have mandatory dues, but we do ask each family who is able to make a tax-deductible donation each year. If even half of the families donated $50 we would reach our fundraising goals from donations alone!! Click here to support us! Thank you!
