ALL SCHOOL SERVICE DAY
Wednesday, November 5, is the FCS Service Project day. FCJH/HS will be going out to serve in the community. School will run from 8 a.m.- 3 p.m., but instead of classes, we will be helping at various organizations. It is considered a regular school day and attendance will be taken. More information to follow.
USE OF COPIER IN THE OFFICES
A reminder to the students: the copier machines in the offices are not for student use. If students wish to make copies, they are 10 cents each.
SERVICE ACADEMIES
If you are a senior interested in applying for any of the service academies (West Point, Air Force, Naval, and Merchant Marines), pick up an application from Mrs. Sargent. Applications are due November 1.
CSF OFFICER ELECTION RESULTS
The California Scholarship Federation (CSF) voted for club officers at their Oct. 7 meeting, electing Natalie McCallum for tutor program director, Andrew Rurik for treasurer, Austin Ward for historian and Suzanna Quiring for vice president. The position of president resulted in a tie between Elizabeth Grossman and Chelsea Joy and will require a run-off at a later date.
SISTER TO SISTER PROGRAM
The Sister to Sister program signups are underway. This program pairs junior high girls with a high school girl to be their friend and role model in an effort to facilitate the transition from elementary to junior high. As such, “big sisters” are not primarily intended to provide counseling or give unwarranted advice.
Junior high girls interested in the program must complete and submit a form with parental permission. Forms are available in the JH office and must be returned by Oct. 24. For more information on Sister to Sister, contact Molly Sargent at 299-1695 ext. 126.
ENTERTAINMENT BOOKS
Entertainment Books are one of the best fundraisers for your students and for the school. The cost is $25 and students can save up to 50% on restaurants, movies and activities.
After the sale of the first book, junior and senior high students can designate $7 per book sold to fund their school activities, such as sports, drama, band, choir and CSF.
For those who send 5 to 10 e-mails to their friends about the entertainment books, students can win a game download or a chance to win a Nintendo Wii.
If anyone has questions, call Michelle Regnerus at 299-1695, ext. 125, or e-mail her at [email protected].
