2015-16 L&N Student Mission – Own it!

School Ops:
·      Don’t forget – TODAT IS AN “N” DAY!  You will go to all N-day classes and meet with N3 & N4 for the last time this semester!

·      Today is the last day to turn in Exam early dismissal slips.  Faxes, emails, and phone calls will not be accepted on Wednesday and Thursday to check you out after exams end at 12:30.  Get the form to school TODAY!  A copy was attached to student email announcements today in case you need to download and print it.

·      We have 2 therapy dogs coming today.  One is a Havanese (about 7 pounds) named Peyton.  He will be here 1st block.  The other is a Saint Bernard (don’t know his name, about 100 lbs).  He will be here 3rd period.  Both dogs will be on the Verandah.  Drop by to talk to them and pet them to distress a little!

·      It's that time of year again! The L&N STEMpunks are holding another holiday giveaway. To enter, go to the L&N STEMpunks Facebook page (fb.com/LNRobotics) and like the holiday giveaway post. First prize is a 128GB flash drive, a $50 Visa gift card, and our new t-shirts. There will be lots of winners this year, so make sure you're in the running! And don't forget to like our page!

·      The journalism class needs your help.  They are doing a news show for midterms and need as many people as possible to recreate Mr. Bell's profile photo on Twitter (@AskMrBell) for one of the segments. So, recreate the photo and post it with the #gryphongrind2015 on Twitter or Instagram. 

·      Last week for the lowest prices of the year!  Prom tickets for the Junior/Senior Prom are now available for purchase during lunch.  All tickets are $40 until December 18th.  Get your tickets now.

What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.
