Loose Change for Haiti
All staff and students - Please bring any loose change that you have to help with the crisis in Haiti. Students can give the money to their homeroom teachers. We will collect money until February 22. The grade level with the most money collected will be able to wear jeans on the following Friday. Any questions, see Ms. Atkinson (SGA).
“Get Caught Being Good”
CMEppes has started a reward system for students who are making excellent choices in the classroom, hallway, lunchroom, etc. Each staff member will receive ten tickets each week to hand out to students they see making good choices. Dressing appropriately and neatly and wearing your lanyard and name tag can earn tickets too.
On Thursday, students may redeem their tickets at the Concession Stand for prizes, or they may accumulate them for a wrist band to wear jeans. We want students to accumulate as many tickets as they can so they can get the rewards. See the attachment for the list of prizes.
Parents, if you would like to help, you may send in $5 and $10 gift cards. Your help would be greatly appreciated!
NOTE: Students who arrive at school after 8:45 without a doctor's note or a parent signing them in will be assigned to ISS for the remainder of that period to protect instructional time.
C.M. Eppes sweatshirts are on sale for $20, available in black and light blue. They may be purchased in the Office.
SGA will be selling Crush sodas again this year for Valentine's Day. Get your "Valentine" a "crush soda".
