Thomas Jefferson Middle School Announcements
Tuesday, March 1, 2022 – Day A
1) Birthdays Today – March 1st…Henry Zebarth.
2) Because of how crazy last week was, I want to revisit last week’s Monday Message. As a lifelong educator, I certainly relate to Mrs. Obama’s quote. “Success isn’t about how much money you make. It’s about the difference you make in people’s lives.” What difference are you making in the lives of others?
3) This Friday, March 4th, is our next after school activity/dance event (2:30-4:30 pm.). The cost is $3 with money going to the Stead Family Children’s Hospital in Iowa City. Concessions will be available. Remember, if you have had 3 or more referrals OR have had an in-school/out-of-school suspension, you are not able to attend.
4) Please pick up any artwork from last trimester in the art room by Friday, March 4th.
5) Start saving your pop tabs Hillhawks! Starting on March 7th we will be collecting pop tabs for the Ronald McDonald House. Bring in your pop tabs to your circle teacher for a school-wide service project for an opportunity to win a pizza party for your circle group.
6) Are there any 6th, 7th and 8th Grade students interested in cheerleading? Join the Hempstead Cheerleaders on Monday, March 7th from 4:40-8:30 for their cheer camp.
