Science Supplies
Parents, do you have any of the following items lying around your house that you can donate to our classroom? These are items we plan to use for 7th/8th science this school year. If you find something you can give, please send it in as soon as you are able. I am not asking for you to buy anything, but rather to donate items that you have on hand. Thank you!

Chapel
Due to conflicts in Rev. De Boer's schedule, the time of chapel has been changed to 2:30PM. Chapel is this coming Friday, February 2. You are welcome to take your student home directly after chapel (there will not be refreshments afterwards since chapel is close to the end of the school day).
I hope many of you can join us to help us praise the Lord through song, instrument, and learning from God's word through the speech.
Quite a few of the students have piano preludes for chapel. Preludes will begin around 2:25. Feel free to come early and enjoy the music.

7th grade: Friday the 26th Noon Lunch Provided
The party committee is providing a noon lunch of stromboli, chips and pop for 7th grade students on Friday. Students do not have to bring in any money for the meal since the class has money left over from some past events.
7th/8th Grade Debate Pictures
Students held debates for their Language Arts classes. The topics for debate were a second gym for our school, more sports practices in grade school, mandatory involvement in sports at the grade school level, experimental testing on animals, and a four day school week. Students did a fabulous job of defending their positions and using critical thinking skills.
