October 5th - National Denim Day to fight breast cancer

Lee Jeans is proud to sponsor their annual "Lee National Denim Day" on Friday, October 5th. This is the largest single-day fundraiser for breast cancer. Show your support for the fight against breast cancer by wearing your favorite pair of jeans, or any denim, in exchange for a minimum donation of $5.   This is not a denim or free dress day for students unless a donation is made.  Please make checks payable to Lee National Denim Day and turn them into your homeroom teachers.  Thank you for supporting this great cause to find the cure for breast cancer.  I hope to see a lot of denim on the 5th!!!

""Character Counts" Free Dress on Friday, Sep. 21

All students will have "Character Counts" free dress on Friday, September 21st.  The students are to dress in the color of the pillar they want to work on the most during the 2007-2008 school year.  For example, if they really want to practice caring, they should wear red on Friday.  Here are the pillars and colors:

Trustworthiness = blue                  Respect = yellow/gold

Responsibility = green                    Fairness = orange

Caring= red                                  Citizenship = purple

Teaching character is going to be an important part of the curriculum in all classes this year.  We are excited about developing leaders who will model and teach character to make our communities a better place to live and work.
