B-DAY
Daily Quote/Random Fact: Did you know that Thursday’s name comes from the Norse god Thor, the god of thunder, so "Thursday" essentially translates to "Thor's day" in Old English, reflecting the association with the thunderous power of the god in Norse mythology; making Thursday the day linked to the power of thunder and lightning. 🤔
Today’s Herpstreith Humor: How can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?
Birthdays :
Today’s Grub: Cheeseburger, Chili, Chicken Bacon Ranch Salad or Sub Bar
Tomorrow’s Grub-Breakfast: Biscuits & Pepper Gravy or Cereal
Lunch: Meatball Sub, Tenders w. Garlic Toast, Caesar Salad, or Pizza Bar
If you’d like a Salad, please let Mrs. Herpstreith know by 9 am!

Sports Report: What an 8th-grade night! The 6th grade started with a 14-0 win to move 8-0. The 7th grade started slow but got going in the 2nd half with a 22-18 win as they are 15-8 on the season. The 8th grade would be on fire from the arc hitting 9 3's and would pull away from South Fork 47-33 and improve to 14-9 on the season. Avry, Addi, Joelle, Kennedi, and Paige all got spoiled tonight. We couldn't be more proud of these 5 as they continue their season, it seems like yesterday they were 6th graders. Congratulations on a great 8th-grade night. Thanks to all that helped out with posters, decorating, gifts, and those T-shirts. The girls travel to Vandalia tonight. The games begin with 6th grade@ 5pm. Bus leaves at 3:45pm
The 7th-grade boys lost to Blessed Sacrament last night in the Mowhawk Tournament. They have tonight off and will face Pana tomorrow night at 6pm.
Bus will leave @5pm
GOOD LUCK BRAVES!
