Welcome 2013

Welcome back! This week we were able to discuss some of our 2013 goals and resolutions. Please share a goal that you have either at school, home or socially for 2013.

Choir Assembly

Today the Soiree Singers  and the Bedford High School Choir came and gave a great performance. They sang remixes of Christmas songs. They sang Little St.Nick, Carol of the Bells, Santa Baby, Up on the House Top, and much much more. Just about everyone's favorite part was when the boys and the girls harmonized and over lapped each other. Mr. Smith their great choir director sang the solo of "Jingle Bells" during one of there mixed songs "Light up the World." With his help and musical genius they never would be able to sing as beautiful as they do now. If you want to see more go to the Toledo Zoo tomorrow (12/20/12) to see them in person.

Food Drive

Okay everyone, our goal is 56 and so far we only have 33 so we need to step it up! Each one of us only needs to bring in 2 canned food items (or more). That's so easy! Many classes already have their goals so we need to get ours! So bring in any type of food item it doesn't just have to be canned-box items are good as well. Thanks!                    ( Written By Katie K.)
