NOV 5: Sudie Supper - Specific Cane's Locations (see below) 4-9p
I hope everyone enjoyed their time on Tuesday, November 4th! This month will be filled with opportunities for connection and gratitude!
The 3rd annual Sudie Food Drive benefiting the North Texas Food Bank will start early this year. With the ongoing government shutdown, SNAP benefits have been heavily impacted. This will put a huge strain on the food bank as they try to meet the increased demand. In an effort to combat this food insecurity, the honor society's goal is to make weekly food donations in the month of November, as well as a one-time monetary contribution the Friday before Thanksgiving. To raise the money, we will be bringing back coin wars, but this time by grade level! The grade level with the highest contribution of cans and coins will win a week of free dress when we return from Thanksgiving Break. Collection begins on Monday, November 3rd. Together we CAN give back!
This Friday, we will also have our November Coffee with the Principal. During this time, Counselor Brown will review the Dallas ISD Choice and Magnet Application process for any 8th-grade families wanting more information.
Thank you for your support of our students, staff and Sudie!
Join us THIS FRIDAY, November 7th, at 9:00 a.m. for Coffee with the Principal!
Principal Brokaw will be updating you on all things Sudie. We hope to see you there for this informative and engaging session! Join the Zoom linked HERE; passcode Sudie
