Good morning and happy Monday eveyone. Algebra II test tomorrow - everyone else has the week off from tests I believe :)

Canned food drive here at the school started last week. The real winners of this contest are the people in our community who need the assistance and will benefit from our spirit of competition. Last year we really helped out a lot of people and I believe we will do even better this year.
