Tomorrow is Color wars between grades, where 6th grade wears red, 7th grade wears white, and 8th grade wears black. Lastly, Friday will be the day of the Carnival, so dress accordingly. Remember to show grizzly pride and good luck this week!

• May School Pool is almost here! Once you get your School Pool tracking card, all you have to is mark down every time you walk, bike, bus, or carpool. At the end of the month, fill out the contact information on the back and return it. Each returned tracker earns ASB $5. In October, you returned 401 School Pool trackers, setting the record for most cards returned this year! Let's see if we can beat that number! Keep a look out for the School Pool tracking card coming soon in your 6th period class!
