Veterans Day is a federal holiday in the United States and occurs every year on November 11th. To help commemorate this holiday, Veterans from our community, including representatives from the Patriotic Commission and American Legion, are visiting social studies classes today and tomorrow. In honor of Veterans Day, we encourage students and staff to wear red, white, and blue tomorrow! Let’s show our appreciation, support, and gratitude for those who have served our country.

 

In 2014, Tom Delniki proclaimed the month of November as “Distributive Education Clubs of America” month in South Windsor.  Please join us this month in celebrating DECA!

 

CLUBS AND ACTIVITIES: 

 

Help Chef Fill the Box! Chef Sullivan, FCCLA and the culinary students challenge YOU to help fill the two GIANT boxes located outside of Annex Room 11 and in the Main Lobby. Please help by bringing non-perishable items to one of the boxes by Monday, November 17th. Take a selfie of yourself donating to the box and email it to Chef Sullivan and  you will get a raffle ticket entry. One winner will be chosen for a Crumbl Cookie Gift Certificate!

If we complete the challenge of filling BOTH boxes by Monday the 17th, we will pull 3 additional winners for local business gift cards!

This is a great opportunity to help out our neighbors and feed hungry mouths in our community! Say it with me- “FILL THAT BOX! FILL THAT BOX! FILL THAT BOX!”
