SCOPE wants to thank all of the advisories who participated in the Valentine’s Day project. The valentines have all been collected and delivered to the NEK Council on Aging. Special honorable mention goes to Mrs. McGarvin’s and Mrs. Gould’s advisories, who not only made a LOT of valentines, but they were all super colorful and beautiful as well. Congratulations to the Forest/Holcombe advisory — they made 275 valentines for our senior community members and will enjoy Valentine’s cupcakes this Friday courtesy of Chef B! Thanks to so many of you who took the time to reach out to people just because you care. Love is what it’s all about!
If you think Gucci and Lulu Lemon are high fashion, then you have never designed your own trendy pantsuit from cardboard boxes and yogurt cups. The problem is that we live in a world where showing that suit is considered an epic fashion don’t and will most likely result in a report to the Fashion Police. Don’t give up your passion for recycled material fashion, and instead show up to the Recycling Olympics after school next Thursday in the Amphitheatre. Change is inevitable in life. Hopefully that is comforting in a world in which we are experiencing the loss of the pancake eating contest. What used to be some good old-fashioned gluttony in front of 500 people is no longer what is cool, classy, and non-barbaric. Also, don’t forget to come to Dodge Ball and Floor Hockey next Friday morning as part of the Winter Carnival fun!
SCOPE will be meeting after school today at 3:30 in Ranger 212. See you there!
Yes, it’s perfect weather for the Bowling Club to meet today after school. New bowlers are always welcome. The bus leaves Brantview Drive at 3:45 and returns at 5 pm.
Joke of the Week: After last week’s joke, someone stole my thesaurus. I can’t find the words to describe how angry I am.
Happy Birthday today to Sisu Lange, Stella Liang, and Gabe Matysiak!
