Tomorrow is the final day of M.O.Y.A. and we will be celebrating with a special spirit day. This week we have been participating in a mitten and glove drive for people in need. For the cost of a pair of new mittens or gloves, Middle School students may participate in a spirit day tomorrow, October 30, 2014. Spirit day attire is acceptable. Jean bottoms, blue shirts, yellow shirts, and college shirts are all acceptable. No jeggings, no leggings, no basketball shorts. Tennis shoes, dress shoes, or boots are acceptable. No flip-flops, no sandals. Students will give their mittens/gloves to their homeroom teachers when they arrive at school tomorrow just as they would their dollar on spirit days. Family Dollar has lots of mittens and gloves in stock!

 We look forward to decorating our Mittens for M.O.Y.A. tree at the end of our hall with all of your donations! Thank you for your support in this very worthwhile initiative!
