SCHEDULE AND EVENTS FOR WEEK ENDING DECEMBER 15

KINDNESS CLUB

For our first outreach project we are beginning to collect donations for the “House of Hope” which provides care for homeless families.  These families are in need of Socks for all ages, packaged snacks and juice boxes for kids, and baby items such as; pacifiers, bottles and sippy cups.  Please join us in collecting and donating these items.  Drop off bins are located in Mrs. Hillson’s, Mrs. Bruff’s, Mrs. Davis, Mrs. MacMullin’s and Ms. Nelson’s room.  We truly appreciate it.

BAND

Dear Ryan Band Member:

We are well on our way to our first concert. We played through three of our four songs on Wednesday. Although we didn't have Full Band on Thursday, the Thursday group should be able to catch up this week. 

Please take some time to play through Frere Jacques and Part A or Part B (or both) of Aura Lee before Wednesday. That way, you won't be just trying to learn the notes in Full Band. You'll be able to listen to everyone else too.

Wynn Musical - Legally Blonde, Jr. 

The Wynn Drama Club presents Legally Blonde Jr. next weekend - Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights at 7:00 at the Wynn Middle School Auditorium. Please go - you'll support your fellow musicians and see a great show.
