Any 7th or 8th grade boy or girl planning to join the track teams this spring needs to sign up on the sheets outside of Coach Vajda’s room.  Be sure to include your afternoon bus number on the signup sheet.  When you sign up, it is important that you take a practice schedule from the folder next to the signup sheets.  Make sure you give that schedule to your parents.  If you are planning to join, but have not had a physical yet this school year, please see Coach Vajda or Mrs. Bishop for the forms.  Lastly, if you are interested in pole vault as an event this year, please put a star next to your name when you sign up. 

The answer for today’s trivia question is that it was announced  incorrectly that the winner of Best Picture at the Academy Awards in 2017 was La La Land.   

We would like to close with this quote from John F. Kennedy: “The American, by nature, is optimistic.  He is experimental, an inventor and a builder who builds best when called upon to build greatly.”
