Fun Facts for the Week.

This week is National School Lunch Week

Don’t forget to say “thank you” to those people who work to provide us with school lunches. 

—---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also we have a fun fact from the Guidance Department

 

October is College Application Month. Seniors, when you apply to a college, show your senior English teacher your completed application or email confirmation so your name can be placed in a drawing for prizes. We will begin drawing this week and will continue for the month of October. 

 

We will have our College and Career Fair on October 24th from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm on the Rebel Boardwalk. College recruiters, Military Personnel, LOSFA, and Businesses from all over Louisiana and surrounding states will be here to visit with you! Make plans to attend!

Wednesday’s Activities:

 

  • Board Game Club members, you will be meeting Wednesday after school in the library. 

  • Dual Enrollment students who owe overage fees for classes that OPSB isn’t covering, today is the deadline for making those payments. 

 

Thursday’s Activities: 

 

  • This is the Biscuits for Books chicken biscuit day. If you purchased a biscuit, stop by and see the librarians BEFORE first period to get your biscuit. 

  • Eating a biscuit might help those of you who have registered to participate in the Blood Drive that is happening Thursday. Remember you must be at least 16 years old and you need to see Mrs. Nix to pre-register before you donate. A note about the blood drive: We are so close to our school goal of 85 donors! Please, stop by today & sign up with Mrs Nix in Rm 3105. Donors that are 16yrs old need to bring their waivers to Mrs Nix. Faculty can stop by during their planning period & be put at the front of the line. 

  • The volleyball team will be playing at Evangel at 4:00 for those who can travel over to support the team

  • Also, don’t forget that if you are interested in joining ROTC, the deadline is Friday. 

 

Friday’s Activities: 

 

  • The spirit theme for Friday is Jerseys. Be finding the jersey you want to wear and be ready to show your spirit.

  • The football team will be playing at Pineville this Friday night. 

  • Those of you wanting to take the PSAT, registration closes on Friday for that test.

  • Those of you interested in playing basketball, those tryouts are Friday afternoon from 3:30-4:30 in the OLD gym. You can tryout and then head to Pineville to support the football team. Remember you need to see Coach Hill and get some paperwork done,  including a physical, before you can tryout. 

 

Saturday’s Activities:

A note from Guidance: 

Seniors, 

The FAFSA Application is being updated; therefore, it will be made available in DECEMBER 2023, instead of the usual October release date. Our Guidance Department will be providing more information on this important graduation requirement soon!
