Winter Carnival
Today was our annual Winter Carnival event. It was an exceptional day with a lot of smiles, laughs and effort on display throughout the day. The event ended in a tie with the Juniors and Seniors coming in 1st Place. There were many highlights throughout the event including Tug of War, relay races, Quiz Bowl, Gator Ball and of course the class Lip Sync's. All four classes put in a great show with their lip sync's however the stars of Lip Sync may have in fact been the teachers. Their performance was a complete surprise and it had everyone on their feet, cheering and shouting out their approval of the performance. Thanks go out to all the faculty who participated in this spirited performance. Lastly, a great deal of appreciation goes out the members of the Student Council and their advisors Ms. Smith and Mr. Nauss who did a great job organizing and conducting the event. I'd also like to extend great appreciation to all of our class advisors for all their efforts, time and commitment to the student body in each grade level. It is a big task and it is much appreciated. Below are some of decorations that brightened up the building and reflect the creative talents of our students. The

Lastly, The start of Spirit week is of course the Snowball Semi-Formal. The event was very well attended and it was a wonderful night of music, dance, photo's, I mean selfies and time spent with friends. We will try to include some photo's from Snowball in our next Blog which will be released on the 27th of February.
Hoping that everyone has a great Winter recess and is ready to come back to school on the 23rd. Weather permitting of course.
