Good morning, Vikings!

Today is Tuesday, May 24th.

 

Stand for the pledge of allegiance Vikings (wait 3 seconds)

 

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. (wait 3 seconds)

 

We pause to acknowledge that Odle Middle School resides on the traditional and occupied land of the Coast Salish Peoples – past, present, and future. We honor their connection to the region, pay respect to Coast Salish Elders past and present, and stand in solidarity through their struggles.

Attention all 7th graders: SOS!  This is your last chance to apply to be a WEB Leader.  Completed applications must be turned in to Ms. Farkas by 2:30 tomorrow and she won’t be accepting any applications after that time, so please make sure to get yours in on time.  If you need some time and space to complete your application, Mrs. B and Ms. Farkas will be hosting tutorial today in the Dance Studio for students to come and work on their WEB applications.  Feel free to come by during tutorial today to work on and/or turn in your application.

 

Do you have fines on your student account? Right now, more than 400 students at Odle do. What does that mean? At Odle, if you have a hold on your account, you can’t pick up your yearbook. And these fines don’t just go away, they stay on your account when you move up to high school. If you have fines at high school… You can’t compete in school sports and you can’t attend high school socials. Finally…  if you still have fines in 12th grade, you can’t participate in the graduation ceremony or pick up your diploma. Bottom line? Fines don’t just go away. There are lists posted by the attendance window and on the trophy case in the commons. If your student ID number is on the list, you have fines on your account. Please return any lost books, pay the fines on your account, and see the office if you have any questions. We’re here to help.

 

Reminders from Miss Gayle! When students leave class with a bathroom pass, they are expected to use the nearest bathroom on the same floor as their current class. If you choose to use a different bathroom, are found roaming, or take what your teacher determines to be an excessive amount of time, you may be marked as “skipping.” Remember, other students may be waiting to use the bathroom, too, so be mindful of others & responsible by not taking advantage of the bathroom pass.

 

Today’s lunch is Mandarin orange chicken with steamed green beans and brown rice.

 

Have a great day everyone!
