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:
Friday - Blue and Gold Day
Lunch today will be chicken patty and French fries.
