The sixth grade will be going on its annual Renaissance Fair fieldtrip this Tuesday. All students attending need to wear comfortable shoes and dress accordingly for the weather. Remember also to bring a brown bag lunch that can be discarded when finished so that students do not have to carry around their lunch boxes all day. Students may also bring money for souvenirs as well as food served at the fair. The bus will be leaving Brogden Middle School promptly at 7:30 and will not wait for any late students unless there is a late school bus. So be sure not to be late!
Mark your calendars for the next PLC Early Release Day on Wednesday, October 12th. School will be dismissed at 12:20 p.m.
This Wednesday, October 12th is Unity Day, or Unite Against Bullying Day. It’s a national event whose ultimate goal is for schools across the nation to promote awareness, education, and support for those who have been or who may currently be bullied. Brogden is going to participate in this national event by wearing orange: either an orange t-shirt, hair band, wrist band, orange socks, etc. We will also sponsor a door decorating contest by homerooms that will be judged by administrators on October 12th. Prizes will be distributed to the homeroom that shows the most support of Unity Day. The motto of Unity Day is: Today, Bullying stops with me.
Fall pictures will be taken on Monday, Oct. 17th. Fall Sports pictures will also be done that afternoon. All students will take pictures to be included in the yearbook, but students must have order envelopes and money on the day of pictures in order to purchase. Students see your homeroom teacher if you have any questions.
Don’t forget to sign up your reward/loyalty cards for Brogden. This is usually a simple matter of taking your card to the courtesy desk and telling them that you want to attach it to Brogden Middle School. We have accounts at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Kroger and Target.
