honest, hardworking, reliable and able to work well independently and
able to handle small details.
A good attendance record is also important. if you are

Stuco Elections

Here is what I would like to have it say.  "Would you like to make a difference in our school? Do you have great ideas?  If so, then you should run for Student Council Representative.  You are eligible if you have good attendance, a positive attitude, a good work ethic, and at least a "C" cumulative GPA.  Election packets will be available Monday, February 11.  See Mrs. Beem in room 403 for more information."

It can just be text on the screen with someone reading it, I am not looking for anything complex.  It might be fun to have a background that looks like real election information.

Needs to be on by Friday

play

Hi.  I hope you all get a chance to come see the children's play tomorrow night at 7:00 here at the high school.  It is titled The Curse of The Lost Tomb and the students are really doing a nice job with it.  For those of you who have never had a chance to make it to one of these, you should know that the students really get a big kick out of seeing their teachers here supporting them.  It's always a lot of fun and hopefully you will get a chance to see it.  And if you see any of the students involved, please wish them "Break a leg!"

Theatrically yours,

Tracy Eden
