Wednesday, December 10th - A Day

• Raiders, now that winter is here, remember that everyone needs to be out of the building by 2:45 PM unless you’re with a teacher or at an after-school activity. Lately, we’ve had too many students still hanging around 10–15 minutes after the bell, and we need your help. At dismissal, grab your things, head out promptly, and make sure your ride knows to be here on time. Students may not loiter in the hallways before 2:45, and in the mornings you may not wait in the vestibules before school. Please enter the building only when doors open and head directly to where you need to be. Thanks for doing your part to help keep arrival and dismissal smooth, efficient, and safe!

• The theme in the book that Mr. Matt recommends is the triumph of good over evil. In this book, evil is in the form of the wicked fox Slagar and his equally unpleasant but often dim-witted followers.
