MATH NERDS: Mrs. Papagni has your half pounds. Please stop by her room B305 to pick up your half pound. Remember, you needed to make the majority of math nerd sessions in order to earn a half pound.
THOUGHT OF THE DAY: Listen up! The Arabs have an old proverb like this: The sword wounds the body, but words wound the soul. It’s true, you know. Words can wound. Unkind words… abusive words can really hurt. Sometimes they can hurt for a very long time. If you take a minute to think about this, you can probably remember something someone said to you a long time ago to hurt your feelings. There are a lot of people who look just fine on the outside, but inside they’ve been wounded by unkind word .So how do we heal the wounds? Talk to someone and share your feelings. Then remember what John Heywood said: It hurteth not the tongue to give pleasant words. Today lets heal some wounds. Be especially aware of how you speak to others and give away a few kind words.
