Square Dancing...

The sixth grade students had three full days of square dancing this past week and will continue through Thursday of next week. On Thursday, all of the students will take part in a skills test. This will measure not only ones knowledge of square dancing and the different figures, but also how well each student listens and works with one another. Ask your student to demonstrate some of the moves with you at home.

Examples: Do-Sa-Do, Right Arm Swing, Left Arm Swing, Allemande Left, Allemande Right and Promenade

Congratulations to the 8th grade class on continuing their outstanding BALLROOM DANCING skills with Mrs. Garvey this week! Remember, next Friday (12.18) is our actual Ballroom Dance. Every student in 8th grade will be participating in this. Girls, as a reminder, if you are planning on wearing high heels to the dance, DO NOT wear them all day at school. Your feet will be very tired by the time 1:00pm comes around.

Good luck to the Varsity Girls Basketball team as they travel to MVCC this weekend to play in a pre-season tournament. Next week, the JV Girls have three games to wrap up their season: Monday, home against Jefferson**Tuesday, home against Cass**Thursday, away against Old Quarry. GO SPARTANS!
