GRYPHON ANNOUNCEMENTS
For Tuesday, November 12, 2013
“L” Day Schedule
·
The "Girl's Group" is sponsoring a food drive for
FISH pantries. Each advisory will be given a box (or more if needed) on Tuesday
Nov 12th to begin collecting
non-perishable food items. The advisory class that gathers the most food
donations by Nov 26th will win a Krispy Kreme Donut party. Please
encourage your classmates to participate in this worthy cause. If you fill your
box ahead of time and need another one please email Mrs. Stewart or Mrs. Keith
so we can collect the box and replace it.
·
Looking for something different to do before the
UT/Vanderbilt kickoff? How about a robot
rally! Come out and support the Robotics
team – Sat, Nov 23. Bring a tailgate
dish to share and visit with local STEM professionals and the robotics team as
they fundraise to restore the historic L&N neon sign that hangs on the
front corner of the building.
·
Be on the lookout - on December 4th we will be having a
faculty vs. Senior football game and tickets will be three dollars to watch
during the last hour of an Early Release Wednesday schedule. Monies raised will go toward scholarships for
senior dues. Tickets will go on sale
during lunch soon.
