After school in the
High School Cafeteria
Monday, October 20, 2008
The Interact Club will meet
Monday and Wednesday in room E202 at 2:40pm. Please be prepared to
discuss and plan for harvest Festival.
The Bible Club is meeting in room B210 (automotive) every Thursday at
2:35 p.m. Everyone is welcome and refreshments will be served. Thanks
for your cooperation.
Students our Annual United Way Campaign has begun. Please remember to
bring your donation every EVEN DAY to your 2nd Period HOMEROOM. Teachers
submit your class’s collection envelope to the Activities Office by
10AM.
Additionally Penny Wars will be taking place between Classes and
Academies during both lunches!
Rules of the Penny War
The GOAL of the Penny War is to collect as many PENNIES as possible in
your jar and put as many NON-PENNIES in everyone else’s jar.
Each team has its own container. Money is worth “points” based on its
monetary value.
| Pennies = 1 point Nickels = 5 points Dimes = 10 points Quarters = 25 points |
1 Dollar = 100 points 5 Dollars = 500 points 10 Dollars = 1,000 points 20 Dollars = 2,000 points |
Pennies give your team
positive points while nickels, dimes, quarters, and any dollar bills
take points AWAY from the team’s total. Therefore, you want to put
PENNIES in YOUR TEAM’S jar (positive points) & nickels, dimes, quarters,
and dollar bills (negative points) in the jars of OTHER TEAMS.
Whichever Class/Academy has THE MOST POINTS at the end of the Penny
Drive, wins!!
TOMORROW IS CLASS WARS!!!! Bring your donation to lunch!
The Hispanic Heritage Luncheon will take place Monday, October 27th.
Purchase your tickets today!!!
The Miami Dolphins have partnered with the Miami-Dade County Public
Schools to offer select tickets to Miami Dolphin games (Tickets to the
Raiders are still available.). The proceeds of these sales will go
towards supporting Student Activities at Miami Lakes Educational Center.
Tickets are only $20. (Regular face value $52) This is a substantial
savings!!! Help support MLEC and the Miami Dolphins!!! Stop by the
Student Activities Office for more information! RAIDERS’ tickets will
only be sold through October 30th!!!
"Do the right thing" is back again for the 2008-2009 school year.
Any teacher interested in selecting an outstanding student please see
Mr. G. Campbell in student services for more details and check your
mailboxes for all necessary forms.
Students are reminded to come to school each day on time! Students if
you are absent, remember that 5 unexcused absences in an annual course,
or 3 unexcused absences in a semester course, will result in a no credit
(N/C) for the class. Remember if you are absent you MUST bring a
note and receive an admit to excuse your absence. DO NOT GIVE YOUR NOTE
TO YOUR HOMEROOM TEACHER. Admits are issued in the Student Services
Office prior to the start of school each day and during lunch and after
school in the Main Office with Ms. Cheron. Do not be absent
unnecessarily.
Students arriving tardy to school must sign in at the Tardy Center in
the C Cafeteria. Students with excessive tardies will be required to
serve an Administrative Detention. BE ON TIME!!! AND COME TO
SCHOOL EVERYDAY!!! If you have any questions regarding attendance
please speak to Mrs. Forteza in the Student Services Office.
The Principal’s Word of the Day is
DOCILE (DOS ul) adj. easily taught; obedient; easy to handle
The docile students quietly memorized all the facts their teacher told
them.
The baby raccoons appeared docile at first, but they were almost
impossible to control.
