Who wants cookies and cake??? In honor of Pride Month, the GSA will be hosting a bake sale next TUESDAY after school outside of the cafeteria and library. All proceeds will go to support the “It Gets Better Project” — a nonprofit organization with a mission to uplift, empower, and connect the LGBTQIA-plus community. So remember to bring a few dollars next Tuesday and get a sweet treat for a good cause!

Calling all 6th, 7th, and 8th graders!! Class shirts are HERE! This week, Ms. Hogwood will be messaging students via Canvas to come pick up their class T-shirts from her office.

And may the most spirited grade win!
