Other News and Notes

Faculty Meeting - Our regularly scheduled monthly faculty meeting is this Wednesday, 12/1.  We will be meeting in the Library at 7:30 am. If you missed our meeting last month please see Scott B as we have some required trainings to make sure you review.

December Drives - We have a number of "Drives" happening in December. Here is the list and what is happening with each one:

1. Canned Food Drive - December 6-10 collected in first period classes. This is our annual canned food drive for the holiday season. We will advertise this week but will begin collecting next week. Competition will be through 1st period classes. Prizes for winning classes. We are competing for "King of the Can" title with the other high schools. All canned food goes to the Puyallup District efforts and remains in our community.
2. Coat Drive - This drive officially ended last week prior to the snow storm of 2010. Since some of you did not get a chance to turn in any coats you may still do so. The coat drive will not continue to make up any days.
3. Blood Drive - December 6. This blood drive is shaping up to possibly be the largest of all our recent blood drives. There will be a lot of activity around the blood drive next Monday. Students will have assigned donation times and should not be out of class other then their assigned times. Kathryn Russell will get a list of works who need to be released as well as those donated and their assigned time. 
4. United Way - The Unite Way campaign is a district effort. Everyone should have received their United Way giving form. If you have not turned you form into Kim please do so. All forms are due by December 1.
5. Giftmakers - The annual giftmakers program is underway. Our ACE academy students are working with folks at ESC to provide gifts for this program. It is not a school-wide effort but several of our students are working on the project

LINK - This Wednesday, 12/1 will be a make up LINK. Our video kids have done a lot of work putting RAM TV together for last week when we got snowed out. As a result Dewayne will be showing RAM TV during LINK this Wednesday. The other event going on during this LINK will be Winter Wishes. Winter Wishes will be placed in your box to be completed as students watch RAM TV. At the end of LINK please collect all the wishes and send them to the main office. The packet you receive with your wishes will give a more detailed explanation.

Financial Aid Planning Night - Our financial aid planning night is scheduled for Wednesday, 12/1. Please remind your students about this upcoming event. It is a great opportunity for students and parents to get more information about financial aid and college costs.

Winter Tolo - The Winter Tolo is currently scheduled for Saturday, 12/4. The dance will be in the Commons from 8:00 to 11:00 pm. With the snow last week we are talking with Tanya Marcoe and her group about whether it makes sense to continue with the Tolo this weekend or postpone to January. Stay tuned....
