ANNOUNCEMENTS AND HOMEWORK FOR THE WEEK OF DEC. 7TH-DEC.11TH

ANNOUNCEMENTS

NJHS is organizing a Christmas Collection. (There is no cost involved, and you may even decide to clean out that linen closet!) Please check the NJHS blog for details.

Our Christmas Show will be held in the church on Wednesday, December 16th at 7:00 PM, and each homeroom will sing one song. Although informal, we hope that it is fun!

And yes, the students in my homeroom have been told to be dressed in "all black", and yes, that includes Under Armour long-sleeved shirts and black swooshies, but black shirts, velvet skirts, and dress pants are fine (in a perfect world). Interestingly, I have discovered that 7th graders do not even mind participating in a Christmas Show if they are allowed to wear Under Armour!

The students in my homeroom have decided to have two $5.00 grab bags. One gift is for a student whose name was chosen randomly and should remain secret (yeah, right), and the other gift will be for a stealing game. For the second gift, boys will steal from other boys, and the girls will steal from other girls.

All middle school book reports are due on Monday, January 4th but may be handed in sooner.
