KEY CLUB

ATTENTION all students. Our school has been overtaken by tiny, colorful dragons. If you find one, take it to room B119 before or after school to spin the prize wheel. This special event is sponsored by Key Club and goes from Monday December 1st through Friday December 12th.  Only one dragon per student is allowed. So hunt for those tiny dragons as they are worth prizes ranging from suckers to Snowball dance tickets. Happy hunting!
