Next week is Red Ribbon Week which will also be a spirit week! Red Ribbon Week is an annual campaign held in the United States to raise awareness about drug prevention and encourage youth to live drug-free lives.
Next week is Penny Wars, sponsored by the LVMS PTA, during all lunch periods. By the entrance to the MPR (S. Gym / Cafeteria) each House has its own collection jar. The goal is to have the most points for your house to win Spirit Points. All coins are worth awarded points in your house jar. Any bills are subtracted points. Good Luck to all homerooms!
