Mathcounts:  Members who have money for pizza party today after school from 3:05 – 3:45 need to get it to one of the coaches by lunchtime.  We’ll meet after school today in Mrs. Forster’s room to celebrate our season and wish good luck to our regional participants.  Be sure you have a ride home at 3:45pm.
