Menomonie Middle School Announcements 

9/11:  On September 11, Patriot Day gives all of us time to reflect on the devastating terror attacks that took nearly 3,00 lives.  We commemorate those who we lost and give thanks to the brave 1st responders who put their lives on the line.  Take a moment today to consider what we stand for as a nation and how we can work together to make the world a better place for all.  On Patriot Day, U.S. flags are lowered halfway, and there is a country-wide moment of silence at 8:46 am (Eastern Time), which is when the first plane crashed into one of the Twin Towers.  We will have a moment of silence now.

Boys Soccer:  We will meet in Mr. Lemkeā€™s room, room 728, after school today, not out at the fields.

Student Council:  Student Council has a new meeting day and time this year!  We will meet every 2nd & 4th Tuesday from 7:30am- 8:09am in the library.  Students returning to Student Council, pick up a pink sheet from Ms. Yonash.  New students wanting to join, please pick up a yellow packet in the office.  Forms are due September 24 to Mr. Haas or Ms. Yonash.
