Thanks Parents and Kids!

Hey there - 

Wow! What an awesome weekend it was at Saturday Live! Our "West High Basket" earned $330 for Arrowhead School...that was the 2nd most valuable basket auctioned off - Way to go!

We are nearing the mid-term, which will be this Friday, October 2nd. Be watching for the 'official' mid-term report to come home with your kids that afternoon. That report will need to be signed by you and returned to me next week...thank you in advance for you helping to get them back quickly.

With fall now here, please make sure your kids are dressed appropriately for outside activity in cool weather!

Saturday Live Basket...

Parents - 

Our 6th Grade class voted this week on a basket theme for this year's Saturday Live basket raffle, and it was determined that we would like to do a WEST HIGH THEME for our basket. 

As most of you are aware, this is a collaborative effort on our part, and we ask that all parents/families help make this event a successful one. Over the next couple of weeks, we will be collecting 'items' somehow related to West High School. If you would like to contribute an item, please send it to school with your student. If you would like to contribute financially, you may send cash with your child, and either I, or a classroom mom will do some shopping...

Please let me know if you have questions regarding this event. 

With thanks,

Mr. H.

Arrowhead Shirts...

Parents and Students, 

The new shirts should be here tomorrow afternoon or early Thursday morning! If you are interested in purchasing, please send cash or check with your child by Friday...the cost, again, is $12.00 and checks can be made out to "Arrowhead Student Council". 

Thank you for supporting the STUCO. Our representatives will be elected by the end of this week or early next week. I am sure your kids will keep you posted!

Thanks again.

Mr. H.

Fall NWEA Testing Next Week...

To All - 

Just a quick heads-up about our fall testing window...while the window for fall NWEA testing is open for a while, our class, along with another 6th grade, will be testing next week. 

Our testing will begin on Wednesday after lunch, and run through Friday, with one test happening each day. 

I will be sending an e-mail, as well as a note in Tuesday folders to remind you of the upcoming tests. Please make sure your kids are ready to go on Wednesday. We can do snacks if you would like to send something with your student.

Thanks for all you do at home!

The Tournament...

A football tournament is being organized in a 'round robin' fashion, eg. every participating team plays a game against every other team once and only once...

This is not a loser out tournament...every team plays every other team one time.

If 78 games are played throughout the tournament, how many teams participated in the tournament?
