Next week is National FFA Week. For FFA week we will have a dress up
day each day of the week. Students can also pay $1 a day to wear a
hat. There will be a FFA member in the library before school starts
each day to collect money and give students a sticker
as an indication that they paid to wear a hat. It is still up to the
classroom teacher if they allow the hat to be worn in the classroom.
All clothing and hats must be school appropriate. The dress-up days
will be as follows:
Monday - Country Day
Tuesday - Official Dress day
Wednesday - Camo Day
Thursday - Bib Overall Day
Friday - Blue and Gold Day
