This week South Holt will be doing dress-up days to celebrate the week before we get out for Christmas:
Today: It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas (Wear an Ugly Sweater contest)
Friday: One More Sleep; It’s Christmas Break (Wear Christmas Pajamas & Relax, It’s a ½ Day)
Thank you to the High School Student Council, the FCCLA, the FFA, the Yearbook, the Junior High Student Council, and the 6th Grade Student Council for helping at the Christmas Hayride last night! The whole South Holt Express was a wonderful event last night.
There is a “Guess How Many Candy Canes Contest” being held by the student information center. JH and HS students and staff are invited to guess how many candy canes are in the jar. The closest guess wins the Smarties candy canes. Mrs. Anderson will announce the winner during 8th hour Thursday afternoon. Good luck!
Friday, December 20th is a 1:00pm Dismissal Day and a “Fun Day” for JH and HS students. JH students will go bowling, have pizza, and watch movies. HS students will do games, have a trivia tournament, and play dodgeball. And remember…..any student with an “F” for the 2nd Quarter will not participate in these Friday Fun Events.
More about Friday…High School Students, school lunch will still be available to all, but each student will receive one free piece of pizza. Additional pieces can be purchased for $2 each. If students participate in the Trivia Tournament they will receive a free can of pop, others can purchase a pop for $1. And…..High School Students, please put together a trivia team and sign up during lounge. Teams should have 4-6 members, teachers can participate. Each participant receives a free can of soda during lunch, and the winning team will get $50 cash!
The high school basketball teams play again tomorrow night at home vs Nodaway Valley. JV boys play at 5:30pm on Friday to start the evening of basketball.
There will be a 5th Quarter event 30 minutes after the basketball game on Friday at the First Christian Church for food, drinks, and games. This fun event is for 9th-12th grade students only.
