The 5th, 7th, and 8th grade will be doing Reindeer Mascots, and the 6th grade gym games on Tuesday during seminar. Thursday, the 5th, 6th, and 7th grade will be having cookies. The fifth and seventh grades will be doing mad libs, sixth grade will be doing Reindeer Mascots, and eighth grade will be participating in gym games. Friday, 5th grade has their party, 6th grade will have Mad libs, 7th grade gym games, and 8th grade cookies and finishing Mad libs.
I want to thank the staff for being amazing in the planning and participating in all of these incentives this year! A special shout out to Josh Page in creativity and planning!
