Ski Club Update from Mr. Myers

Good afternoon everyone.  Unfortunately, due to several factors, there will not be a Shatekon/ Arongen Ski Club this year.  I’m sure many of you will be getting emails soon asking about the club, if you haven’t already.  There were a few separate factors that have led to my not being available to run the club this year, and for that I apologize.  I fully intend to be able to run the club again next year, and hope that any students that were interested this year and that are still in the building in the fall of 2017 will join us next season.

Monday - yellow - golden rule
Tuesday - blue - be a true blue friend
Wednesday - red - it's okay to be angry
Thursday - white - peaceful problem solving
Friday - green - show pride in our community

The youngest or only family members have a letter which also provided websites for more information.
