THOUGHT OF THE DAY: Former President Harry Truman once said: I have fought all my life against prejudice and intolerance. What does it mean to be prejudiced? Well, we’ve all heard the saying: You can’t judge a book by its cover. When we prejudge someone or something, we form an opinion without looking beyond the cover, the appearance of things. Every… single… one of us has the right to be accepted and understood as an individual, not as a member of a race or an economic condition or a religion or a club. Today, let’s follow the example of Harry Truman and work toward breaking down the barriers of prejudice.
BREAKFAST: Attention all students: The cafeteria is now serving free breakfast and lunch meals for all students every day until the end of December. You heard that right… free breakfast and lunch meals! All students automatically qualify and no form needs to be submitted. Take advantage of this program and join us in the cafeteria for your free breakfast and lunch each day that you are in school.
LUNCH: Students can drop off money for deposit in the morning to the breakfast cashier or Mrs. Cabrera. The money or check must be in an envelope with the student’s name and ID number. All funds will be deposited onto student accounts after the breakfast service. Cashiers will not accept cash during lunch.”
SAFE: It’s SAFE to Tell. The SAFE Team exists to help students with problems in a confidential manner to help remove any and all barriers to education. You can refer your friends or yourself. It’s now safer and easier to tell: just fill out the SAFE to Tell form which you can find ONLINE in your guidance counselor’s resources folder. Don’t worry, “It’s Safe To Tell.” Thanks for being AWESOME!
