Regular Order, Day 3

• This week we are raising money for the Mission Drive through a drive for Fresh Kicks Fridays. Each homeroom that raises $150 collectively will be awarded a Fresh Kick Friday on Friday March 8^th (the Fridays before exams).  Bring money into your homeroom all this week. Homerooms that make this minimum amount of $150 will be issued a bracelet to be worn on Fresh kicks Friday along with your Fresh kicks. Shoes must cover the toes and have backs. Slides, flip-flops, and sandals are not allowed. Students may wear Crocs, but they must be in ‘sport mode.’ White socks may be worn in place of black socks, but socks must be worn.
