Boys Tennis:  Reminder for boys tennis, ride the bus to the high school all week for practice.

 

School Store:  The School Store has gone mobile! The store will be on carts in each pod starting today!  There is no need to go into a different pod as each cart has the same items.  We hope to see you there!

 

Food Drive:  Right now, food pantries across the U.S. are in need of more food items.  MMS students from Scout Troop 23 are now putting on a food drive where all proceeds will go to the local Stepping Stones food pantry.  Please drop any non-perishable food items in the bin outside the office.  The bin will be collected on Friday, April 30th.  Thank you for your donations.

 

High School Dance Team Try-outs:  The Menomonie High School Dance team will have tryouts on May 2nd, from 1 – 5pm at the high school.  Auditions will run like a clinic for the first half.  The second half will be the tryouts.  No past dancing experience is necessary.  Just bring a smile and readiness to learn!  Open to grades 8-11.  Check out the posters in the pod for more information.
