The Ceremony is officially under way...

as if we could afford otherwise.  

The Pin Ceremony will be on Friday, June 1st, 2012.  It will take place during your last period (period 8---it's a B day) and will last from 2:00 pm-3:35 pm.  

We have secured the pins (applause).

OFFICERS
We currently have $110 in our account here at school, kept by the treasurer (thank you).  Those funds will be used for decorations.  Please look up potential deco. online at Party City, etc. and make printouts if possible to show our class sponsor.  We need balloons and a helium tank, which will cost around $50.   Brainstorm for other potential deco we may need, within the confines of our limited budget.  
WE WILL HAVE A MEETING THIS WEEK.  

until then,

see you tomorrow.


note: community service letters for the car wash have been signed and distributed since the last post.  apologies for the wait.  thanks again to everyone who volunteered.

In Limbo: After the Car Wash (2-2 and 2-3)

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Car Wash on Feb. 2 and Feb. 3.  
(I apologize for being a bit late)

Anyways, we raised approximately $200.00 between both days.  Hats off to volunteers and our class sponsor for a job well done!  That brings our current fund to about $500.00, according to our class sponsor.  Which means we're just about done with fundraising.  

Alas, the other class officers and I are awaiting our next meeting.  Till then, I can't tell you much else.  We'd like to do something for our class to make this year memorable.  Ideas will be surely accepted.  I am aware this post is quite vague; I'll update you after the next meeting (hopefully soon!)

Thanks for reading.  


Also, volunteers of the car wash- I shall inquire further about the progress about the signing or the progress reports.

CAR WASH: Apparently, we still have some work to do...

Our work here is NOT DONE. 

After our meeting last week with our trusty class sponsor, we were informed that we currently have quite a deficit.  A gap of nearly $500.00.

So, to remedy that problem, we(the officers and class sponsor) have decided to initiate a CAR WASH which will take place on Thursday, Feb. 2 and Friday, Feb.3, after school.  

THE CAR WASH:
We really need volunteers for this event.  Please see me (the class president) or Mr. Martinez if you are interested.  Read below for times and more info; make necessary transportation arrangements beforehand ASAP.  We will need approx. 15-20 volunteers (the more, the better).

Feb. 2 will be an early release day.  The car wash for this day will last from dismissal (1:30 pm) to about 3:15 pm.  Feb.3 will be a Teacher Workday (which means that the teachers will be here, but the other students will not); we will be working from 10:00 am to 3:15 pm on that day as well (make sure to bring lunch).  

Further volunteer info: We'll meet in Mr. Martinez's room on both days (supplies for the car wash will be provided) and the car wash will take place in the school parking lot.  Make sure you specify whether you will be volunteering on Thursday, Friday, or both days.  I will take names of volunteers for the event shortly (perhaps next Monday).  COMMUNITY SERVICE HOURS WILL BE PROVIDED. 

There will be announcements for the car wash over the PA soon.  

THE TICKETS: The officers and I will start selling tickets promptly to teachers.  The tickets will sell for $10.00 each and will benefit our class (namely for the Freshmen Pin Ceremony).  Again, announcements containing this information will be aired shortly.     

Thanks again. 

Our current status: We have $285.00 in our account for the Pin Ceremony.  

Also, class officers: our meeting will be on Friday, Feb. 27, in Mr. Martinez's room at the beginning of lunch.
